The invention relates to an emergency support for stabilising individual limbs or body parts during transportation or whilst operative-therapeutic measures are being carried out. The inventive support consists of a cushion which is filled with granules and which is provided with a valve (2) for alternate evacuating and flooding. Said cushion enables the limb or body part to be at least partially surrounded. The support also has two tracks consisting of an air-tight material joined to its sides. Throttle elements (7) are provided in the space inside the cushion containing the granules in order to prevent the free flow of said granules, and Velcro3 tape trimming (8) is provided in the middle area of the cushion, on the outer surface which faces away from the body when the support has been applied, as part of a hook and loop fastener. Said trimming fastens onto a fixed structure. The cushion has hook or loop patches (9, 10) for a hook and loop fastener on the inside and on the outside for attaching other auxiliary elements provided with the appropriate counter-trimming, especially a chin support and the filter system of a breathing apparatus. |
