Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint

The Ferno AS120 achieves secure, total, and precise immobilization through its vacuum-activated design. This mechanism ensures maximum support while maintaining crucial circulation.

Here is how the immobilization works:

• Custom Molding: The splint features an exterior of durable, vinyl-coated nylon containing internal polystyrene beads. When a vacuum is applied (using a compatible pump, sold separately), these beads lock into place, allowing the splint to rapidly mold and conform perfectly to the patient’s exact arm contours.
• Secure Fastening: The custom-molded shape is then firmly secured using multiple, integrated, adjustable hook-and-loop straps, ensuring reliable alignment and stability during transport.

This technology creates a rigid cast effect that is highly effective for pre-hospital and emergency care stabilization.

The Ferno AS120 is made from vinyl-coated nylon and filled with polystyrene beads.

The Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint has the following key specifications:

• Minimum Length: 760 mm
• Width Range: 480 mm to 630 mm
• Height/Profile: 30 mm
• Weight: The splint weighs 3.0 pounds (or 1.15 kg).

Yes, the Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint has adjustable hook-and-loop straps for a secure and customizable fit.

The Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint is designed for professional medical use where rapid, total, and secure immobilization of the arm is necessary while preserving patient circulation.It is ideally suited for:

• Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and Pre-Hospital Care: Used for immediate and secure stabilization of arm injuries during transport.
• Trauma Scenarios: Provides a moldable cast that conforms precisely to the patient’s anatomy, effective for various arm, wrist, and elbow injuries.
• Medical Settings: Utilized by trained personnel requiring a reliable, high-quality immobilization device that adheres to safety standards (CE marked).

The vacuum pump required to create the vacuum within the splint is NOT included.

The Ferno AS120 is specifically designed to provide total immobilization while maximizing circulation to the injured limb. This is accomplished through its unique, custom-moldable construction:

• Custom Conforming Fit: The splint uses internal polystyrene beads within a durable vinyl-coated nylon shell. When a vacuum is applied (pump sold separately), these beads lock, conforming precisely to the contours of the patient’s arm. This provides rigid, secure support without creating localized pressure points that could restrict blood flow.
• Secure & Adjustable Fastening: The splint is secured using several adjustable hook-and-loop straps, allowing medical personnel to achieve a firm fit while carefully controlling pressure to maintain optimal circulation.

The Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint is designed for rapid and effective immobilization. Its internal polystyrene beads quickly conform to the arm’s shape, providing instant, customized support and minimizing the risk of further injury.

The Ferno AS120 Long Arm Vacuum Splint is constructed from vinyl-coated nylon, which ensures durable, long-lasting use.

The Ferno AS120 achieves secure, total immobilization through its unique, vacuum-moldable design, which creates a custom fit for the patient’s arm.

Key steps and benefits include:

• Custom Conformation: The splint contains internal polystyrene beads within its durable vinyl-coated nylon casing. When a vacuum is applied (pump not included), these beads shift and lock, conforming precisely to the contours of the injured limb.
• Rigid Support: This locking action turns the flexible splint into a rigid cast, providing total immobilization to prevent movement that could cause secondary injury.
• Secure Fastening: Multiple adjustable hook-and-loop straps are used to reliably fasten the splint, maintaining the secured position and alignment during transport.
• Circulation Maximized: Crucially, the AS120’s design ensures maximum blood circulation is maintained throughout the immobilized extremity while providing necessary support.
