The Boston splint is a conformable splint designed for the immobilization of fractures and trauma of the limbs. It is designed to provide rigid yet moldable support, suitable for emergency rooms, clinics, home use, and in sports environments as a temporary immobilization aid.

The internal structure is made of annealed raw aluminum, allowing anatomical shaping to the patient; the external coating is in EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), a non-toxic, washable, and disinfectable material. The splint is radiolucent, allowing radiographic examinations to be performed without removal in many cases.

Main Advantages

Offers a good compromise between rigidity and lightness, ease of application, and hygiene (washable and disinfectable). The adaptability of the aluminum core allows for rapid conforming to the morphology of the limb, reducing the need for additional materials.

Areas of Use

Indicated for use in hospitals (emergency rooms, orthopedics), clinics, ambulances, and for prescriptions for home use when temporary support is required, manageable by the patient or healthcare personnel.
