A handy system created by Spencer to immobilize joints effectively and simply. The Blue Splint immobilization system, made in five shapes, has changed its way of treating fractured or sprained joints. All splints can be modelled according to the necessity of each case and once obtained the desired profile, the splint will offer extraordinary rigidity. To align the splint in a straight position it is sufficient to straighten by hand the inside structure. Blue Splints are extremely light and could be overlapped with each other to create an infinity of configurations and solutions. They can be used for adults and children of any size. The versatility and the compactness that characterize the splints make them useful for the rescuer even in the most strange of situations. The arm and forearm splints are also used as an armrest during intravenous infusions. Perfect for ambulances, medical cars, mountain rescue, sport medicine, water rescue, orthopaedic centres, first aid and any kinds of emergency departments. The lightweight of the complete kit and the reduced dimensions makes it the least cumbersome and compact system on the market.
Made of self-adherent strips, they allow a fast and easy fixation. The top part of each splint is highlighted by an orange coloured self-adherent strips. The Blue Splint Pro have straps with adjustable nylon buckles. The top strap is highlighted with by blue webbing.
Finishing is high precision and resistant in order to increase the performance of the splints in comfort and durability. The profile structure is obtained by sewing a nylon band to the Nyoprene support.
The outside part is blue, the inside is black.
It is made of a tempered ergonomic profile. The profile, purposely studied, offers total rigidity. The thermal treatment allows bending and return to the original profile under normal conditions without considerable structural alterations.
It can be done directly with alcohol or mild disinfectants. On removing the inside structure, Blue Splint can be machine-washed at a maximum of 40 °C [+104 °F].
Osama-Tex has specifically studied and produced Nyoprene for the realization of Blue Splints. Nyoprene has structural characteristics and incomparable therapeutic and dynamic properties, determined by the sandwich composition: a central core of neoprene, covered by non-absorbent 100% laminated nylon on the outside and inside part. This configuration permits:
Adhesives are not used in the coupling therefore cutaneous irritations are eliminated; it also increases the performance of perspiration and heat control.
