Thermoplastic Splint kit

About Thermoplastic Splint kit

A thermoplastic splint kit is a collection of materials designed to create custom splints for immobilizing, protecting, and supporting injuries such as fractures, sprains, and strains. Here are some examples of thermoplastic splint kits available:

• Thermoplastic Splinting Starting Kit: This kit from Jorgensen Laboratories LLC includes various materials such as Marq-Easy thermoplastic sheets, padding, and strapping, along with an instructional CD ROM. It is suitable for a wide range of applications and can be used for both human and veterinary purposes.

• North Coast Medical Tenodesis Thermoplastic Splint Kit: This kit is designed specifically for C6 quadriplegic patients or anyone with wrist extension strength but no finger strength. It includes precut thermoplastic pieces, braided string, an adjustable cord lock, and other necessary components to create a custom splint that stabilizes the thumb and holds the index and long fingers slightly flexed. When the wrist is extended, the static line attached to the wrist cuff pulls the finger MP joints into flexion, creating a fingertip pinch ability and gross grasp ability.

• DogLeggs Carpal and Tarsal Supports with ThermoPlast Splinting Kit: This kit is designed for veterinary use and includes VELCRO Brand hook and loop straps to secure the splint to the support. The ThermoPlast material is a thermoplastic designed for use in splinting, coming in a hard flat sheet that becomes malleable when heated and can be molded to create a custom splint that secures to the DogLeggs Carpal or Tarsal Support.

These kits provide the necessary components to create custom thermoplastic splints tailored to specific patient needs, offering a lightweight and customizable alternative to traditional plaster casts.
