The present invention is a critical care transport system comprising a transport frame, a transport wrap, and a restraining belt system which is especially useful in inter-hospital transport of infants and children, or retrieval and transport of critically ill children from remote locations. The transport frame further comprises an upper frame divided into a lower tray and a hingedly adjustable upper tray which allows elevation of the patient's head even when the belt restraining system is fully engaged. The transport frame further comprises various apparatus for securing air and oxygen tanks, instrumentation, and medical care devices for use during transport. The transport wrap further comprises a series of contiguous flaps which, when engaged in a specified order, serve to restrain, comfort, and protect the patient. The belt restraining system comprises a series of buckles and belts which engage at a common locking point for distribution of transport forces over a wide area and comfortable, effective, secure transport of the patient.
