Judgements:
A thermoplastic splint is a device used to immobilize, protect and support injuries such as fractures, sprains and strains. Thermoplastic splints differ from traditional plaster casts in that they are lighter, easily molded to fit the body of the individual patient and can be removed for cleaning.

How to use?

Place splint in 65-70°C water for 1-3 minutes or until it becomes pliable. Remove and blot dry with a clean towel. Mold the splint around the body parts (like an arm or leg) until it is the correct shape. As this splint cools, it will harden into a rigid, protective covering.
