Sager splints are anatomically and medically engineered to provide the first responder with a single, fast, easy, fail-safe and compact traction device for today’s extreme rescue environments.
Sager Emergency Traction Splints are the world’s only emergency traction splints with quantifiable, dynamic traction which ensures the correct amount of safe, secure traction that is able to decrease as the spasm releases. This patented system permits you to document exactly how much traction you have applied to your patient.
Sager Emergency Traction Splints conveniently stay within the adult body’s silhouette and is designed for optimal transportation, including helicopter and air transfer/rescue. Sager Emergency Traction Splints are indicated for treatment in proximal third and mid-shaft femoral fractures. They have a much broader range of application and use than other traction devices. The Sager Extreme Splint is ideal for extreme environment capabilities.
It is compact, robust and lightweight and is easily stored or carried in most backpacks and folds into a 35 cm x 28 cm x 11 cm carry case. The Sager Extreme Splint is radiolucent to all areas of a femoral fracture. The Sager Extreme Splint treats single or bilateral lower limb fractures for both adults and children from 5th to 99th percentile. This splint has a multi-patented articulating base and is hinged so that it swings left or right to apply counter traction more directly on the ischial tuberosity in all types of body shapes.
