Clinical and Operational Notes:

Intended use (manufacturer IFU): non-invasive circumferential pelvic belt to stabilize pelvic fractures during transport to definitive care. Indicated when a pelvic ring fracture is present or suspected and hemorrhage risk is a concern. Do not use if anatomical landmarks are absent, or when an isolated hip fracture is the working diagnosis.2

Place the binder over the greater trochanters (not the iliac crests). After tensioning, secure the Velcro safety flap. Do not remove the binder solely to swap devices if that would risk a sudden blood-pressure drop; retension if it loosens. Release compression at least every 12 hours (or per local protocol) for skin checks while maintaining manual stabilization.2

Follow local EMS/fire protocol and medical direction. Pacific Biomedical supplies FareTec RESPONDER products through authorized US distribution channels.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Where should the RESPONDER Pelvic Binder be placed?
Center the binder over the greater trochanters with the patient supine. Leave about a 5 to 6 inch gap between edges before engaging the hook-and-loop plate, then tighten until snug (two fingers under the device) and secure the safety flap.2
Is this binder single-use?
Yes. FareTec lists the RESPONDER Binder as disposable / single-patient use. Reuse may cause illness or reduced performance; dispose per facility biohazard protocol after use.2
What patient sizes does one binder cover?
The binder is about 53 inches long and is cut or folded to fit. Packaging lists hip circumference from 25 to 75 inches (Pedi to Adult).12
Is it X-ray translucent?
Yes. FareTec specifies X-ray translucent construction so the binder can remain in place during radiographic assessment when clinically appropriate.1
How long can the binder stay on?
The IFU describes temporary pelvic stabilization, typically up to 24 to 48 hours, with skin checks at least every 12 hours or per local protocol while maintaining manual stabilization when loosened.2
Does it work with FareTec traction splints?
Yes. The IFU covers concurrent pelvic binder and CT-6 application; keep the CT-6 ischial strap low and horizontal to avoid disrupting the pelvic reduction.2
