A fire and heat resistant rescue device designed to offer a safe and effective means to protect and remove, during an emergency, infants, toddlers, children or other persons from hazardous atmospheres which may include heat, flame, toxic gases and fumes, hazardous materials, and other dangerous exposures. This design was developed to give a firefighter/rescuer a way to safely move a potential victim through a dangerous environment found during a house or structure fire, but also has broader rescue and situational uses when protecting and moving a victim from a hazardous area. This device uses compressed air, when required, to supply slight positive air pressure inside the bag, thus excluding entry of heat, smoke, and other hazards. It is designed to function as a raising or lowering device when needed. It is also designed to allow the rescuer to perform CPR in non hazardous atmospheres, when required.
