A large body stretcher dimensioned to accommodate large-bodied persons and foldable to conserve space. The stretcher provides a patient support surface comprising a first board and a second board that are secured together and foldable along a longitudinal axis. The stretcher may conveniently be secured, via a securing arrangement, to a host cot. The stretcher further provides rotatable backrest portions that permit the backrest of the host cot to be raised in order to assist patients who can benefit from being transported in an upright or seated position. The stretcher further provides a plurality of retaining channels so that the restraining straps of the host cot are available for use with a patient placed upon the large body stretcher. Handholds are provided to allow convenient use of the stretcher as a standalone apparatus.

A mobile medical emergency and surgical table that comprises a frame assembly, a pair of mechanically advantaged undercarriage assemblies having wheels, a plurality of stretcher yoke assemblies, a plurality of preferably uniformly dimensioned and interchangeable storage cassettes, an electrical subsystem, and a plurality of optional mounts for the attachment of medical and surgical equipment.

Mobile medical emergency and surgical table

IV pole having mounted at an upper end a holding assembly comprising a head and a plunger, and at a lower end a docking assembly. The head on an upper portion includes at least two opposed upwardly extending projections suitably for hanging IV fluid containers. The plunger is movable between an extended position in which the plunger is held a distance above the height of the projections, and a retracted position in which the plunger is proximate to the projections such that removal of IV fluid containers hung on the projections is prevented. The smooth profile of the head and plunger greatly reduces the risk of the IV pole getting snagged on an obstruction or causing injury to rescue personnel. The docking assembly permits the IV pole to be removably secured to a docking port provided to a structural member and to be lowered to a stowed position.
