David Wampler, PhD, speaks on the efficacy of long backboards as a spinal immobilization and transport device. His research found that patients secured on a stretcher mattress without a long spine board had less cervical spine motion than those secured to a long spine board. EMS World is partnering with UCLA’s Prehospital Care Research Forum (PCRF) to bring original science and research to readers of EMS World and attendees of EMS World Expo.
