What is a Posterior Elbow Long Arm Splint?
The posterior elbow long arm splint is a straight splint that runs along the back (posterior) side of the arm from the upper arm, past the elbow, down the forearm to the wrist and hand. This design immobilizes the elbow joint in a stable position while preventing flexion and extension movements that could disrupt healing. The posterior placement provides excellent support for elbow fractures and dislocations by maintaining proper alignment and preventing harmful movement. This splint is commonly used in emergency departments and orthopedic clinics as the initial treatment for elbow injuries before definitive casting or surgical intervention.

Pre-Padded Design: Padding already built into splint material—no extra layers needed
Quick-Setting: Hardens in just 5-7 minutes for fast patient care

Why Buy Direct Instead of at Your Doctor's Office?
Purchasing your elbow splint kit directly from OrthoTape offers significant advantages over getting it at your doctor's office or emergency room. You'll save money—we charge considerably less than what medical facilities typically bill patients or insurance companies for splinting materials. Emergency room splint applications can cost $300-600 or more when billed through insurance, while our complete kit costs a fraction of that. Many medical offices have limited inventory and may only stock basic white bandages, while we offer multiple color options so you can choose what you prefer. Our splint materials are the same professional-grade products—if not better—than what your doctor or ER uses, meeting or exceeding all industry standards. By ordering from us, you get exactly what you need at a fraction of the cost, with fast shipping directly to your door. You can bring this kit to your doctor's appointment or urgent care for application, or if you're trained, apply it yourself. Many patients save hundreds of dollars by purchasing their splinting supplies in advance rather than paying inflated medical facility prices.
