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.
