The "ETC" (Emergency Treatment Cot) was developed as a first response unit for medical and disaster relief management. The strong aluminum/steel frame supports up to 450 lbs. and includes two buckled straps to insure safety and security for the patient. The innovative design allows both the "head" and the "foot" of the cot to be elevated, providing added versatility in the medical treatment of each individual. This convenient, portable unit measures 31"W x 85"L x 17"H and weighs just 26 lbs. Extremely sturdy and versatile, the "ETC" has been an asset in on-site treatment and care of emergency medical and disaster victims worldwide.
