Hausted Horizon Youth Series Stretcher Pad

The Hausted Horizon Youth Series Stretcher Pad is specifically designed for use on the Hausted Youth Transport Stretcher, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal performance.

This stretcher pad is designed to support patients up to 300 lbs.

The Hausted Horizon Youth Series Stretcher Pad utilizes a dual fluid protection system designed to maintain hygiene and extend the functional life of the foam core. This robust defense includes:

• Internal Secondary Barrier: A dedicated protective barrier is assembled between the multi-layered foam core and the exterior cover. This essential feature safeguards the foam’s integrity even if the outer layer is compromised.
• Zipper Protection Flap: A fluid protection flap covers the heavy-duty zipper, directing liquids away from the seam to prevent internal entry.

Furthermore, the external covers—either the standard Vynmed vinyl or the premium Nymed 6 nylon—are durable, tear-resistant, and easy to clean with lukewarm water and gentle soap.

The stretcher pad is designed for easy sanitation and durability in medical environments. To maintain hygiene, follow these guidelines:

• Cleaning Method: Use lukewarm water and gentle soap to clean the exterior covers.
• Enhanced Protection: The durable covers (Vynmed vinyl or Nymed 6 nylon) are tear-resistant and waterproof. For maximum protection, the pad also includes an integrated secondary fluid barrier between the foam core and the outer cover, along with a fluid protection flap over the zipper.
