Description

The Soft Shell Splint works like the SAM Splint. The Sam Medical Soft Shell Splint has “O” temper aluminum encased in soft foam. The aluminum core allows the splint to be molded in seconds into a variety of shapes. The splint has added thickness on one end to provide both firm and extra firmness. The skin-contact surface is covered with an absorbent brushed terrycloth fabric.

The Soft Shell® Splint is perfect for emergency rooms, doctor’s offices, occupational health clinics, physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics, sports medicine clinics, and home care. Uses include:
• Immobilization of non- or minimally displaced wrist fractures, contusions, and sprains
• Temporary immobilization of fractures after cast removal
• Rehabilitation of ligament and tendon injuries
• Carpal tunnel, repetitive-stress, or cumulative trauma disorders
• Post-operative support after removal of internal/external fixation devices
• Gameskeeper’s thumb
• DeQuervain’s syndrome
• Nerve palsies
• IV board
