The Milpod Stretcher has been designed by Joseph Lincoln for use as part of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) defense when extracting casualties from a region. Featuring transparent plastic that is sheathed over the top portion, the stretcher can be seamlessly accessed via integrated gloves for administering treatment or making adjustments. The inflatable design of the frame enables it to maintain a low weight level, while the see-through top portion helps first responders maintain optimal nightlines on the patient and to keep them connected with what's happening as well.
The Milpod Stretcher addresses the need for more CBRN equipment as many regions grow to require such items in the event of warfare or unexpected breaches related to industry and beyond.
