Abstract

Human stabilization platforms may include a support structure configured to rigidly support a person. A rail may extend longitudinally from proximate a portion of the support structure configured to receive the person's head thereon to proximate a portion of the support structure configured to receive the person's lower legs thereon on each lateral side of the support structure. Each rail may include selectable attachment structures distributed along at least a portion of the longitudinal length of the rail. The selectable attachment structures may be configured to receive modular accessories to be secured to the human stabilization platform. A handle may be located at each end of each rail, each handle being rotatable with respect to the rail. Each handle may be configured to enable manual handling and transport of the human stabilization platform.
