A new lower extremity splint apparatus was applied by paramedics to 50 patients in the prehospital setting to manage a total of 60 injuries. The Reel Splint was designed to provide stabilization with or without traction to a variety of angulated lower extremity fractures/dislocations. In 37 instances (74%), the splint was judged by the rescuers to be superior to the standard Thomas splint. In this series the splint was used successfully for extrication , to immobilize deformed limbs, and to provide traction for the restoration and maintenance of peripheral circulation, with frequent pain relief. No deleterious functional complexities or manufacturing defects were identified. The Reel Splint is a uniquely useful alternative to currently available splints.
护理人员在院前环境中对50名患者使用了一种新型下肢夹板装置,共处理了60处损伤。卷轴夹板的设计目的是在有或没有牵引的情况下,对各种成角的下肢骨折/脱位提供稳定作用。在37例(74%)病例中,救援人员认为该夹板优于标准托马斯夹板。在本系列研究中,该夹板成功用于解救、固定畸形肢体以及为恢复和维持外周循环提供牵引,并常能缓解疼痛。未发现有害的功能复杂性问题或制造缺陷。卷轴夹板是现有夹板中一种特别有用的替代品。
