The "Aviator's Tool" Adapted for EMS and Rescue The Evac Systems First Responder Knee Board (Model EP140) adapts the time-honored efficiency of pilot kneeboards for the high-stress environment of emergency medicine. In a moving ambulance or helicopter, finding a stable surface to write patient notes is nearly impossible. This tactical organizer straps securely to your thigh, providing an instant, stable desk for recording vitals, holding radio frequencies, and managing run forms.

Key Features

  • Hands-Free Documentation: A wide, adjustable elastic strap with Velcro® secures the board to your leg, keeping critical data at your fingertips while leaving your hands free to perform interventions.
  • Integrated Organization: Unfolds to reveal a 19.5-inch wide workspace (10" H x 19.5" W) with dedicated slots for pens, maps, protocols, and triage tags, ensuring you never lose your pen in the middle of a code.
  • Included Clipboard: Comes equipped with a sturdy clipboard to hold PCRs (Patient Care Reports) or notepad paper firmly in place against the wind or movement.
  • Rugged Construction: Built from 1,000 Denier Cordura® Nylon, this board withstands blood, rain, and the rough abrasion of kneeling on concrete, far outlasting cheap plastic alternatives.

Why It Matters "If you didn't write it down, it didn't happen." The Knee Board solves the documentation gap in the field. Instead of writing vitals on your glove or a piece of tape, this professional tool gives you a dedicated command center on your lap. It is essential for flight medics, tactical EMS, and transport nurses.

How to Use

  1. Strap On: Secure the elastic strap around your thigh (over EMT pants or flight suit).
  2. Open: Unfold the Cordura wings to access your pen pockets and reference cheat sheets.
  3. Write: Use the central clipboard for your PCR or scratchpad.
  4. Close: Fold the side flaps in to protect confidential patient info (HIPAA compliant) during transport.

Technical Overview When closed, the unit is compact (approx. 6.5” x 9.5”), fitting easily into a jump bag. When open, it spans 19.5 inches to display all necessary references.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the EVAC Systems Knee Board made from 1000 Denier Cordura Nylon instead of standard materials?

The EVAC Systems Knee Board uses 1000 Denier Cordura Nylon because it's specifically engineered to withstand the harsh realities of emergency response environments. This military-grade material offers superior abrasion resistance, tear strength, and water resistance compared to standard nylon or plastic alternatives. First responders working in dynamic, unstable conditions—whether at accident scenes, fire sites, or search-and-rescue operations—need gear that won't fail when documenting critical patient information or scene notes. The USA-made Cordura construction ensures the knee board maintains its structural integrity even after repeated exposure to rough surfaces, weather extremes, and the physical demands of tactical operations.

Can the EVAC Systems Knee Board attach to tactical gear beyond just the leg?

Yes! While designed primarily as a leg-mounted knee board, the adjustable Velcro strap system allows you to secure it to multiple attachment points including tactical vests, vehicle headrests, backpack straps, or equipment bags. This versatility makes it ideal for paramedics who need a stable writing surface in ambulances, SAR teams working in confined spaces, or law enforcement officers who prefer chest-mounted documentation during active incidents. The strap accommodates various circumferences and the board's lightweight design won't interfere with mobility regardless of mounting location.

What makes the integrated storage pocket different from a standard clipboard?

The EVAC Systems Knee Board's built-in pocket is specifically designed for emergency response workflows, not general office use. Unlike a standard clipboard that only holds paper, this pocket keeps critical items instantly accessible during high-stress situations—think triage tags, patient care reports, backup pens, small medical reference cards, or even a tactical flashlight. The pocket is positioned for one-handed access while the board remains strapped to your leg, eliminating the need to fumble through bags or pockets when every second counts. The Cordura construction also protects contents from moisture and debris that would damage items in an open clipboard.

How does the EVAC Systems Knee Board perform in wet or unstable emergency environments?

The knee board excels in challenging conditions where traditional clipboards fail. The 1000 Denier Cordura Nylon is inherently water-resistant, protecting your documentation during rain, snow, or fluid-exposure scenarios common in medical emergencies. The leg-mounted design with adjustable Velcro strap provides a stable writing platform even when you're kneeling, crouching, or moving through unstable terrain—situations where handheld clipboards become impractical. First responders working vehicle extrications, wilderness rescues, or tactical operations can document patient vitals, scene assessments, or incident notes without needing a flat surface or third hand to stabilize the board.

Is the EVAC Systems Knee Board available in colors that match different first responder uniforms?

Yes, the EVAC Systems Knee Board is available in four tactical colorways—Red (SKU EP140-RD), Black (EP140-BK), Green (EP140-GR), and Blue (EP140-BU)—all priced at $49.99. This allows you to coordinate with your department's uniform standards or choose high-visibility options for SAR operations. The color variety also helps teams organize equipment by role or unit, making it easy to identify gear ownership in shared response vehicles or staging areas.
