Class 2 Litter Patients are characterized by which statement?

Class 2 Litter Patients are characterized by which statement?

• A. Ambulatory walking patients
• B. Inability to move and would require intense medical treatment
• C. Infants
• D. Non medical attendants

Answer: (B)

Class 2 Litter Patients are those who cannot move on their own and require significant medical care during transport. They are non-ambulatory and medically unstable enough that moving them safely on a litter must be done with ongoing treatment and monitoring. That fits the statement about being unable to move and needing intense medical intervention while being moved, which is why it’s the best description. Ambulatory patients can walk and don’t need a litter or extensive in-transit medical care; infants are a different age category and aren’t defined by this movement class; non medical attendants don’t describe the patient’s condition at all.
