I am a nurse. I had to use this splint today for my own son who fell and broke his arm. In the ER I was told that the fracture was a clean break and the bone had not shifted at all. Because of the location of the fracture, if the bone had shifted, he would have required surgery. I think there's a chance that putting the splint on immediately saved him from surgery. Regardless, it helped reduce his pain, so I highly recommend it This was so easy to use. Make sure to keep an ace bandages on hand as you will need them to wrap the splint in place.
I coach my 4 y/o old's soccer team. I bought this as a splint to carry in my first aid kit when coaching as well as for general preparedness. I'm a previous EMT and used SAM splints before. This splint appears be able to be utilized the same way for substantially less cost.
Just as good as the $20 ones but I got this one for $5.50!
Works just as great as an original for half the cost. Folded it flat for more space in my bag. Works best with an ace bandage to hold in place and stabalize
Wouldn’t call them a multi use item, but for single use they are amazing. Really good price for what you’re getting and will definetly work for 3-4 uses I’d say. But the padding wears down quite quickly. But again, excellent price for what you’re getting.
Feature Product
- SUPPORT AND STRENGTH - Treat injured and fractured limbs with this lightweight and flexible splint.
- CONVENIENT SIZE - Rolled splints are much more easy to store and transport than a planular design. The unrolled split measures 24" x 4", but when rolled up it only takes up significantly less space. The roll is only 4" x 2.5" and can easily be stored in backpacks, first aid kits, or vehicles.
- SUPERIOR ALUMINUM INTERIOR - The aluminum core housed between the outer foam shell is substantially lighter and more flexible than other plaster or fiberglass splits, and is also radiolucent, allowing Xrays to be performed without having to remove the splint.
- WEATHERPROOF & REUSABLE - Perfect for all conditions and environments, and easy to clean and reuse.
- EASY TO CUT & SHAPE - The split is easily cut with sheers or scissors to allow you to use a split for smaller body parts or to fit tricky injuries.
Description
Our SPLINT is based on an ancient construction principle: curves are strong. Our SPLINT is built from a thin core of aluminum alloy, sandwiched between two layers of closed-cell foam. The Splint is extremely pliable. Bent into any of three simple curves, it becomes extremely strong and supportive for any fractured or injured limb.
Arrived quickly and undamaged. Fits neatly into my emergency kit. Everyone needs 1 splint.
Works really well. Fits my medical bag. Great price as well.
Great for splinting a broken or dislocated bone until you can get to the hospital.
Works as it should
Haven't used but have several brands now and they all seem comparable. Hopen to never need but glad to have.
