Description
A Medical Splint is a device used to immobilize and support injured bones or joints in order to prevent further damage and facilitate the healing process. Splints are typically made of materials such as metal, wood, foam, or plastic, and they come in various shapes and sizes to accommodate different injuries. The primary purpose of a medical splint is to provide stability to fractured or injured limbs, reducing pain and minimizing the risk of complications during transportation to a medical facility. Splints are commonly used in emergency medical situations, sports injuries, and pre-hospital care to temporarily immobilize and protect injured body parts.
