General Purpose Splinting

General Purpose Splints & Immobilizers

Rapid, reliable immobilization is critical in emergency care, athletic training, first responder settings, and general clinical practice. General purpose splints provide a versatile, fast-to-apply solution for stabilizing injured extremities when a custom or prefabricated orthosis is not immediately available - or simply not needed. At Medicaleshop, we carry a focused selection of field-proven general purpose splints from the most trusted brands in US emergency and clinical care, including SAM Medical, Cramer, Dynarex, McKesson, and Performance Health.

Types of General Purpose Splints:

• Moldable Aluminum Splints (SAM Splints) - The SAM Splint is the gold standard in prehospital and field immobilization. Its aluminum core with closed-cell foam padding conforms to any body contour when bent along its structural curves. Available in folded and rolled formats in multiple sizes, SAM Splints are used globally by EMS providers, military medics, athletic trainers, and wilderness medicine practitioners. Radiolucent and reusable, they do not interfere with X-ray imaging.
• Vacuum Moldable Splints (Cramer Rapid Form) - Cramer Rapid Form Vacuum Splints allow the clinician to custom-mold the splint to the exact shape of the patient's injured limb by extracting air from a bead-filled shell. The result is a rigid, patient-specific immobilizer that provides superior comfort and stabilization compared to rigid board splints. Available in multiple sizes and as a complete carry bag kit for EMS teams and training rooms.
• Foam Roll Splints (ActiSplint by Dynarex) - A cost-effective, single-use foam splint in rolled format, suitable for stocking in first aid kits, urgent care settings, and athletic training supplies. Lightweight, radiolucent, and easy to cut to size.
• Cardboard Folding Splints - Economical corrugated cardboard splints designed for single-use immobilization in emergency, triage, and mass casualty situations. Pre-padded for patient comfort and available in multiple widths to accommodate upper and lower extremity applications.
