When should I use a Ferno Frac Immobiliser?
If a player sustains an injury where a suspected broken bone, fracture or dislocation has occurred then the best way of keeping the injury safe is to splint it. The Ferno Frac Immobiliser (also known as a Box Splint) is a open U shape to slide the limb, (leg or arm) into and then place the padded foam block over the limb to allow the velcro straps to be tightened, holding the limb straight and allow safe movement of the patient to a medical environment for further treatment.
