Infusion splint, also known as an arm-splint, is a medical device that is used to ensure comfortable and safe fixation, prone or supine position of the arm during continuous intravenous infusions, specifically intra-venous permanent-drip infusions, or dialysis. Infusion splints prevent the patient from bending the limb, which in turn minimizes catheter blockages, reducing the need for nurses to reset the blockage alarm on pumps that deliver the fluid into the vein.

PRODUCT USAGE
Infusion Splints are safe and easy to apply. Start from forming the splint beforehand in the position desired and place it, depending on the indication, to the interior or exterior of the joint to be immobilized. Then, tie the elastic straps around the limb securely. Close the straps with the hook and loop fastener; to improve stabilization also crosswise. Infusion Splints should not be used for fractures, open wounds, skin defects, and circulatory disturbances at the place of its application.
