Broken bone braces, also known as SPLINTS, are medical devices used to immobilize and protect broken bones. They are typically made of rigid materials such as metal or plastic and are designed to hold the broken bone in place while it heals. SPLINTS can be used to treat fractures, sprains, and other injuries that require immobilization. They can also be used to provide support and stability to weakened joints. SPLINTS are often used in combination with other treatments such as casts, crutches, and physical therapy.
