Frequently asked questions
Can I perform X-rays while the splint is on?
Yes, the SAM Splint is radiolucent, which means X-rays can pass through the material. This allows medical professionals to perform necessary imaging without the need to remove the splint from the injured limb.
How do I make the splint rigid enough to support a limb?
The splint features a malleable aluminum core that allows you to bend it into a ‘C-curve’. By creating this curve, you significantly increase the structural rigidity and support capability of the device, allowing it to effectively immobilize the area.
Is this splint reusable?
Yes, the SAM Splint is designed for repeated use. It is made from durable, waterproof, medical-grade foam and aluminum, allowing it to be cleaned and reshaped for various clinical or field scenarios.
How do I secure the 'without closure' version?
Since this version does not include built-in closures, you can customize the application using your preferred method, such as cohesive bandages, medical-grade tape, or wraps. This provides flexibility in how you choose to secure the splint to the patient.
Does it come with instructions?
The splint itself features clear, printed instructional graphics and diagrams on the exterior, illustrating the ‘C-curve’ folding technique to ensure you can achieve proper rigidity even in high-stress situations.
Will this splint work in extreme environments?
Absolutely. The SAM Splint is engineered to remain fully functional in extreme temperatures and altitudes, making it highly reliable for field emergencies and outdoor trauma kits.
Is it waterproof?
Yes, the splint is constructed from waterproof, closed-cell medical-grade foam. It can be used in wet conditions and is easy to wipe down and clean after use.
What is the length of these splints?
Each SAM Splint in this case is 18 inches (45.7 cm) long, which is a versatile size for immobilizing various extremities.
Can I use this for sports injuries?
Yes, these are excellent for athletic training facilities and emergency kits. They are suitable for immobilizing fractures, sprains, and providing temporary support for common extremity injuries sustained during sports.
Are these suitable for emergency medical vehicles?
Yes, this bulk pack of 24 is ideal for ambulances, trauma kits, and clinical environments where quick, compact, and reliable immobilization tools are required.
