1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:15,789 The IPC is a powerful tool that is a replacement for the fireman's carry. 2 00:00:16,489 --> 00:00:23,190 It is simple, easy to use, and ergonomically designed to allow for rapid deployment under the most stressful and challenging conditions. 3 00:00:23,789 --> 00:00:31,350 In this video, we will demonstrate how to use the IPC in a situation where the victim is completely incapacitated and in a lying position. 4 00:00:32,810 --> 00:00:38,409 Step 1. Take the lower section of the IPC, which is clearly marked by the fluorescent indicator. 5 00:00:39,270 --> 00:00:42,030 Make sure the large buckle is on the right-hand side of the victim. 6 00:00:43,310 --> 00:00:48,729 Next, raise the victim's knees and place the IPC in a straight line at 90 degrees to the body. 7 00:00:49,549 --> 00:00:52,710 The fluorescent indicator should be in the center next to the groin area. 8 00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:02,060 Step 2. Close the leg straps around the victim's legs and slide the upper part of the IPC carefully under the victim's back. 9 00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:06,459 Never use the IPC if you suspect that the victim has a back injury. 10 00:01:06,459 --> 00:01:14,299 Step 3. Reach into the underarm areas and pull each side of the main harness, creating shoulder straps. 11 00:01:16,599 --> 00:01:21,760 Step 4. Take a seat between the victim's legs and place your arms into both shoulder straps. 12 00:01:22,599 --> 00:01:25,400 Try and make sure that the victim is positioned well on your back. 13 00:01:26,019 --> 00:01:27,599 Tighten the large buckle if necessary. 14 00:01:28,299 --> 00:01:33,120 For optimal comfort, make sure the shoulder pads are correctly located and close the chest buckle. 15 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,540 Step 5. 16 00:01:36,540 --> 00:01:42,060 Pull the victim's arm close to you, roll over onto your knees so the victim is on your back. 17 00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:45,400 Slowly lean back to transfer more weight to your legs. 18 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,700 Stand up slowly, keeping your back as straight as possible. 19 00:01:48,700 --> 00:01:52,959 It's as easy as that. 20 00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:56,799 Place the section with the fluorescent indicator in a straight line. 21 00:01:56,799 --> 00:01:58,739 Connect the leg straps. 22 00:01:58,739 --> 00:02:04,319 Pull the upper half up to the armpits to create shoulder straps. 23 00:02:04,319 --> 00:02:08,659 Place your shoulders on theirs, tighten the strap, 24 00:02:08,659 --> 00:02:12,879 pull the victim's arm into your chest and roll.
