The Kendrick Traction Device -  AKA Optimum Traction Device (OTD) -  is compact,  lightweight and easy to use.

Because the Kendrick  Traction Device / OTD  may be fitted  without  rolling a patient or raising their leg, it can be applied by just one person. The Kendrick /  OTD also provides the ability to work around any hip or groin trauma. 

The traction device  consists of  a folding snap-out aluminum pole which easily adjusts for adult or paediatric use, color coded elastic leg straps, adjustable ankle hitch, and adjustable groin strap.The lack of ischial bar eliminates concerns of causing unnecessary pressure and additional pain to the patient.   

The Kendric / OTD's compactness, low weight and ease of use makes this device especially suited for  first aid, wilderness rescue, ski patrols, tactical response medics, military field medics and more.  The OTD comes complete within a very compact storage orange-coloured  pouch with easy-to-follow instructions.
 

Watch the video on how to apply the Optimum Traction Device. The video is around 20 minutes long, but is bookmarked to when the OTD is actually being set up on the patient.
