When I was working as an RN at an ortho-surg clinic, we had this amazing ortho tech who did all the splinting & casting for our patients. Whenever we had medical assistant or RN students in the clinic, I would send them over to him for at least an hour to observe & learn how to splint. Now looking back, I wish I had taken the advantage of learning from him the techniques of splinting and casting as well as learning the different product labels.
This list of splinting resources will be routinely updated:
Upper extremities
Distal radius fracture - Sugar Tong Splint
