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.

- Open: Unfold the Cordura wings to access your pen pockets and reference cheat sheets.

- Close: Fold the side flaps in to protect confidential patient info (HIPAA compliant) during transport.
