Casualty lifting is the first step of casualty movement, an early aspect of emergency medical care. It is the procedure used to put the casualty (the patient) on a stretcher. Developed emergency services use lifting devices, such as scoop stretchers, that allow secured lifting with minimal personnel. Other methods (explained below) can be used when such devices are not available.

  • En prompt secours, le relevage est l'opération qui consiste à mettre une victime sur un brancard pour permettre son transport (brancardage) vers la structure de soins lorsque celle-ci est proche (par exemple hôpital de campagne dans le cas d'une catastrophe ou poste de secours préventif sur une manifestation), ou vers le véhicule d'évacuation (ambulance, hélicoptère). Le terme « relevage » est trompeur, dans la majorité des cas, la victime est en position allongée durant toute la manœuvre. Note : les méthodes d'extraction d'un véhicule sont décrites dans l'article Prompt secours routier. (fr)

  • Casualty lifting is the first step of casualty movement, an early aspect of emergency medical care. It is the procedure used to put the casualty (the patient) on a stretcher. Developed emergency services use lifting devices, such as scoop stretchers, that allow secured lifting with minimal personnel. Other methods (explained below) can be used when such devices are not available. Since only stabilised casualties are moved (except in unusual circumstances), the lifting is usually never performed in emergency; emergency movements are sometimes performed to respect the Golden Hour. This depends on the organisation of the medical services and on the specific circumstances. Maximum care must be taken to avoid to worsen an unstable trauma. The head-neck-chest axis must be kept straight to protect the spine, and the first responders must keep the patient's body stable (no movement of the feet) during the lift. The first responders have to carry a heavy load (probably more than 20 kg for an adult casualty) in an uncomfortable position. There is thus a risk of injury to the carrier, especially of the lumbar back. To avoid an injury, they must push with their legs (quadriceps), trying to keep their back straight. (en)
