Only on the stomach:

Only sitting or semi-sitting:
1. with penetrating wounds of the chest;
2. with neck injuries;
3. with difficulty breathing after drowning;
4. with fractures of the hands.
Immobilization in case of damage to the bones of the skull
Immobilization of the skull bones is the best way to use a cotton-gauze ring or create a depression from soft material at the head of the medical stretcher. The use of ladder tires is disadvantageous, since it is difficult for the victim to turn his head to the side when vomiting to prevent the vomit from entering the respiratory tract.
Of the standard tires, the Elansky tire is used. A layer of cotton wool is placed on the tire, and then putting it under the head and upper part back, bandaged to the head with a gauze bandage. The ribbons available on the tire are tied around the shoulders and on the chest. In the absence of tires, the victim with a fracture of the skull is placed on a stretcher to which he is tied, in order to avoid any movement whatsoever. Placed under the head and neck soft pillow or bedding, and a roller is made around the head from blankets or clothes.
Temporary fixation of jaw fractures is achieved by applying a sling-like bandage, which should bring the damaged jaw close to the healthy one.
To prevent tongue retraction, it is necessary to fix it by bandaging the tongue to the cheek. If the victim is unconscious, and it is not possible to strengthen the tongue, then the patient's head is turned to one side. It is even better in such cases to lay the patient face down, that is, on the stomach, and put a bundle of clothes or some dense object under the forehead and chest. With any method of fixing the tongue and laying the victim, such patients require constant monitoring.
Immobilization in case of damage to the upper limbs
When applying transport splints, the upper limb is usually given a certain position, namely: 1) the arm is more or less abducted at the shoulder joint and bent at the elbow under a straight or acute angle; 2) the palm in most cases is turned to the stomach; 3) the hand is slightly bent to the rear, the fingers are half-bent, for which a ball, a bandage or a dense lump of cotton wool wrapped in gauze is put into the palm of the patient, which the victim covers with his fingers. Fixing fingers in a straightened position is unacceptable.
In the absence of standard and improvised splints, the injured arm (fractures of the hand and forearm) should be hung on a scarf, and if the shoulder is fractured, it should be bandaged to the body.
Immobilization in case of damage to the lower extremities (thighs)
They take wire or wooden tires of 2 sizes, one long (from the armpit to the foot), the other short (from the crotch to the foot). Both tires are carefully lined with a cotton pad, and the wire ones are bent along the contours of the corresponding limb. Tires are tightly bandaged to the body and the injured leg, and the long one is laid along outer surface torso and legs, and a short one along inner surface legs, taking special care to place the foot at a right angle to the axis of the lower leg.
The bandage captures three joints: hip, knee and ankle.
Fractures of the lower leg
A mesh tire 1 m long is placed on the inner surface of the lower leg, and its end is bent with a horseshoe to cover the foot through the sole. The second tire of the same length is placed on the outer surface of the lower leg and tied with ribbons to the first tire. Both tires are bent along the contours of the leg and bandaged to it.
Foot fractures
A mesh tire 1 m long is bent at a right angle, bent along the contours of the back surface of the lower leg and given it the shape of a gutter if possible. The length of the tire is from the upper third of the lower leg to the ends of the toes (it is better if the tire protrudes 2-4 cm beyond the ends of the fingers). The tire is bandaged to the injured leg along its back and plantar surface. In the absence of wire busbars, strips of plywood or cardboard can be used. In these cases, two tires are needed: one of them is placed on the outer, the other on the inner surface of the foot and lower leg.
Transportation of the victim on a medical stretcher under the supervision of a medical professional is the most ideal way. However, in a number of situations, this issue has to be resolved independently by the persons providing emergency care. The main methods of transportation are shown in the figures: 11.23. - 11.28.
Rice. 11.23. Carrying the victim on the shoulder. With this method, the main load falls on the shoulder, spinal column, legs
R is. 11. 24. Carrying the victim by one person on the back and on the back with the help of a strap. This method is the least tiring for the rescuer carrying the victim.
R is. 11.25. Transportation of the victim by dragging (on a tarpaulin, blanket, coat, etc.).
Rice. 11. 26. Carrying the victim with a strap
Rice. 11.27. The method of transporting the victim "one after the other."
