Electronic stretchers for transporting the wounded were developed by Dmytro Mamonov, a resident of the eastern city of Sloviansk, who was displaced to the safer city of Zhytomyr.

Rubryka reports, citing the story of the SK1 TV channel about the invention.

What is the problem?

Paramedics are constantly on duty at the front line. They provide aid on the front line every day and transport the wounded to stabilization points. Evacuation of injured civilians and wounded Ukrainian service members is carried out by paramedics on special transport. The main task is to quickly provide first aid on the spot and transfer the injured to the hands of doctors for further treatment.

What is the solution?

Dmytro Mamonov has developed electronic carriers that can facilitate the transportation of the wounded from the battlefield and save more lives as medical evacuation will be quicker.

How does it work?

Dmytro says he was inspired to create a light, unmanned chassis to evacuate and transport the wounded.

As a designer, Dmytro already had experience with tracked systems. It is very easy to control stretchers using the control panel. It is convenient to do it even with one hand.

The platform weighs no more than 60 kg. At the same time, it can lift 120 kg of cargo. The stretchers work on batteries that are easily replaced.

If necessary, stretchers can be used not only to evacuate the wounded but also to transport anti-tank mines or shells.
