(Other immobilizing devices such as a Kendrick Extrication Device or a backboard can be used to stabilize the remainder of the spinal column.)

There are also short spine boards, but the short spine board is rarely used now due to the presence of superior devices, such as the Kendrick Extrication Device.

The Kendrick Extrication Device (KED) is a device that is used in vehicle extrication to remove victims of traffic collisions from motor vehicles.
