A blanket drag is most appropriate for a victim who:

The blanket drag is a technique used primarily for moving a victim in a way that minimizes potential injuries and maximizes safety. This method is particularly suitable for a victim who is not dressed because it provides an easier and more hygienic way to transport them, minimizing direct contact with surfaces that may be contaminated.

When using a blanket drag, the victim lies on a blanket, which allows rescuers to pull the blanket rather than lifting the individual, thereby reducing the risk of further injury and strain on both the victim and the rescuers. This technique is especially beneficial when dealing with a victim who may be in a state of distress, as it allows for quick movement while offering a layer of protection between the victim and potential hazards present in the environment.

In contrast, for victims who are large or obese, a different method may be necessary to ensure safety and effectiveness in the rescue. Similarly, while a blanket drag can be used for a child, other techniques might be more appropriate depending on the specific circumstances. Lastly, if a victim may have a spinal injury, more careful and controlled spine stabilization techniques should be utilized to prevent exacerbation of any potential injuries.
