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:
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.
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.
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.
The tapered shape of the FASPLINT is
anatomically appropriate for immobilizing extremity injuries.
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.
Quality vinyl provides excellent patient
comfort and makes the splint easy to form, even in cold temperatures.
The FASPLINT can be evacuated
using the same EVAC-U-SPLINT manual pump with a tapered adapter tip
or a portable suction unit.
Simple instructional pictograms make
application and removal at the hospital easy to understand for all
healthcare providers.
All brands of medical tape can be used
to secure the FASPLINT in place.
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.
Bright safety orange color is easy
to spot, even at night.
Conforming nature of the FASPLINT provides
comfort and secure immobilization quickly and efficiently, minimizing
on-scene time.
