KED Boards

Here is a link for a previous thread where I posted our spinal clearance protocols

Protocol Changes, What would you change if you could?

I generally try to avoid clearing the spinal column in the field, but will if I have to.

I have only used a KED once. It was on a multi vehicle MVA. My pt was responsive and complaining of neck and back pain. The first engine was extricating a pt in much worse shape. So while we waited for the second engine to arrive we used the KED. Other than that ours just gathers dust along with most of the ones all of you have.
