The Semi-Disposable Vacuum Splint

The FASPLINT™ is a semi-disposable vacuum splint that provides secure immobilization without circumferential pressure, eliminating the potential for tissue, vessel, and nerve damage. If equipment retrieval is a major factor facing your department, then choose the FASPLINT. With as little as five uses before being discarded, the cost per use is less than $4.95 per use for the Medium FASPLINT. Use them both if the EVAC-U-SPLINT® works well for your department on a daily basis, but when you have the need for a disposable vacuum splint then choose the FASPLINT. Either way, you will be providing the best care possible by utilizing vacuum immobilization technology.

 

12 Reasons to choose the FASPLINT™ over other limited use fixation splints:

  1. The FASPLINT conforms to any shape or angle. The splint is made to fit the patient, instead of manipulating the patient to fit the splint.

  2. The FASPLINT can be applied quickly and effectively in the field. You can apply the FASPLINT, evacuate it, and secure it in place in half the time needed to properly apply a board splint or air splint. Evacuation time for the Medium splint is less than 5 seconds.

  3. The FASPLINT does not apply any circumferential pressure on the injured area. Trauma surgeons prefer vacuum technology because vacuum immobilizers eliminate the potential for tissue, nerve and vessel damage.

  4. The tapered shape of the FASPLINT is anatomically appropriate for immobilizing extremity injuries.

  5. Low cost means that if a FASPLINT is lost, flies away on a helicopter, or is too soiled to be used again, the replacement cost is minimized.

  6. Quality vinyl provides excellent patient comfort and makes the splint easy to form, even in cold temperatures.

  7. The FASPLINT can be evacuated using the same EVAC-U-SPLINT manual pump with a tapered adapter tip or a portable suction unit.

  8. Simple instructional pictograms make application and removal at the hospital easy to understand for all healthcare providers.

  9. All brands of medical tape can be used to secure the FASPLINT in place.

  10. Three popular sizes make the FASPLINT an easy choice for a variety of patients. The large splint is ideal for leg and shoulder injuries or as a small child immobilizer. The medium splint is the splint of choice for adult arms and ankles. The small splint works well for wrist fractures and dislocations, as well as child arm and leg injuries.

  11. Bright safety orange color is easy to spot, even at night.

  12. Conforming nature of the FASPLINT provides comfort and secure immobilization quickly and efficiently, minimizing on-scene time.
