on the Platform. Users can also allow the patient's lower legs to bend freely at the knees,
facilitating moving around tight corners and stairwells. The Platform may also be secured to a
backboard using standard straps or backboard cable ties.
Always ensure the following:
1. Make sure that the patient's armpits and the upper edge of the LifeBand are aligned with the

3. Maintain the LifeBand at 90 degrees with the Platform. Ensure that the LifeBand is not
impeded by anything such as the patient's arms, clothing, straps, and buckles that may interfere
with the movement of the LifeBand.
