Sugar Tong and Reverse Sugar Tong Splint Kit - OrthoTape
Everything you need in a splint kit to make the Sugar Tong or Reverse Sugar Tong Forearm Splint. Our OrthoTape Padded Synthetic Pre-Cut Splint material is a unique quick-setting splint system that already has the padding built in. No need to add extra padding or stockinette to make the splint. Simply remove from the pouch, wet, trim and form around the patient's limb. Then apply our self-adhesive bandages included with your kit to hold the splint in place. Allow 5-7 minutes for the splint to set and solidify.
The sugar-tong or reverse sugar-tong forearm splint is a long U-shaped splint that immobilizes the injured forearm and wrist and prevents rotation and wrist motion. The sugar tong heals the fractured bones by keeping the fractured ends together and in alignment. It got its name because of its long shape and a similar look to the utensil used to pick up sugar cubes.
Kit includes:
1- prepackaged OrthoTape Synthetic Splint (choose size)
2- roll of self-adhesive bandage (choice of color)
2- roll of synthetic cast padding
1- pair of gloves
