Details
The TRECK is an alternative to trauma shears and seat belt cutters - an emergency cutting tool, specifically designed to simultaneously remove multiple layers of clothing, belts, seat belts, equipment and other obstructions from a trauma patient, without the use of trauma shears.
With some articles of clothing and equipment, the repetitive motions of squeezing the shears with your thumb and finger can be both tiring and time consuming. The initial cut can be difficult with many materials - more so if the patient is moving or convulsing. Shears can and sometimes do fail, and ripping can be a mess or not an option with many materials.
By using your wrist and arms, the TRECK works best as you draw it away from the patient, which prevents contact, and also allows the TRECK to slice through materials more effectively.
Access wounds quickly, safely and easily.
