Hartwell FASPLINT® Vacuum Splint

Designed for really messy trauma calls, or those situations when equipment retrieval is difficult, the Hartwell Medical FASPLINT® provides optimum immobilization at a very affordable price.

This semi-disposable vacuum splint provides secure immobilization without circumferential pressure, eliminating the potential for tissue, vessel, and nerve damage. Unlike air and board splints, the FASPLINT® molds to the contours of the patient’s injury, using vacuum technology just like the EVAC-U-SPLINT® Extremity Splints, so even difficult fractures and dislocations can be stabilized easily and quickly with a level of comfort that is unmatched by any other splinting technology. Simply grab your vacuum splint, place it around the injured area, evacuate the air, and you're done!
