Product Description

The Critical Difference

Recovering spinal trauma casualties from aquatic environments presents extreme hazards. Standard spine boards and harnesses lack positive buoyancy, risking submersion, patient instability, or loss of cervical control during water-to-air transitions and hoist lifts.


The SAR-TRA / SAR-TFA Floating Aid Kit (a dedicated N-E-XT™ accessory) resolves this challenge. Engineered specifically for aquatic trauma recoveries, it seamlessly integrates with the N-E-XT™ Spine Immobilization Device and the Tyrah AR Rescue Triangle Harness to deliver stable buoyancy and uncompromised spinal neutrality during deep water, flood, and aerial hoist extractions.

The Problems We Solved:

  • Aquatic Submersion Hazards: Adds positive flotation support to keep immobilized casualties afloat in deep or moving water.
  • Complex Water-to-Air Hoisting: Works in direct synergy with the Tyrah AR harness for immediate vertical lifting via helicopter winch or technical rope rescue.
  • Multi-Step Equipment Compatibility: Engineered for rapid, seamless attachment to the N-E-XT™ board without compromising strap security.
  • Spinal Alignment Compromise: Maintains complete cervical and spinal stabilization through all phases: immobilization, harnessing, flotation, and extraction.

Ideal for swiftwater rescue teams, maritime SAR, flood response units, Coast Guard operators, and helicopter extrication crews managing water-adjacent spinal trauma.

Key Features

Targeted Aquatic Buoyancy Adds positive flotation to the N-E-XT™ spine board to maintain patient airway elevation and flotation stability in deep or turbulent water.
Seamless N-E-XT™ & Tyrah AR Integration Attaches directly to the N-E-XT™ immobilization device and Tyrah AR harness for a unified water-to-air rescue platform.
Aerial & Rope Hoist Compatible Fully reinforced structural design allows direct vertical lifting via winch or crane without removing the flotation system.
Rapid 4-Step Rescue Workflow Streamlines the recovery sequence: Immobilization (N-E-XT™) → Harnessing (Tyrah AR) → Flotation (SAR-TRA) → Vertical Extraction.
Rapid Field Deployment Fast-attaching kit configuration designed for rapid deployment during dynamic flood, riverbank, or open-water missions.
Rugged Marine Construction Crafted from durable, water-resistant technical materials built to withstand heavy currents, debris, and marine exposure.

"The design feels intentional for the moment when seconds matter."

In the field, packaging matters as much as performance. 6:8 Medical products open fast, deploy cleanly, and don’t fight you when seconds count. The indexing and tear features are clearly designed by people who understand real-world EMS chaos—not just a lab environment.
