3.1 Description
The Ferno® iN∫X® Integrated Patient Transport & Loading System
™
is an emergency patient-handling device designed to transport
a patient over various terrain, to be loaded into and unloaded
from an ambulance, and for transport inside a ground-based
ambulance.
In this manual, the term “iN∫X” is used to represent the iN∫X®
Integrated Patient Transport & Loading System
™
.
The iN∫X is for professional use by a minimum of two trained
operators. The iN∫X is designed to help reduce the risk of
back injury to medical service personnel by eliminating
or minimizing the amount of lifting required to extend or
retract the legs.
During powered operation, the iN∫X does not require lifting
when loading into an ambulance or unloading from an
ambulance.
The iN∫X may be operated manually when desired.
