ABSTRACT:
A splint for a fracture includes a spring-loaded device for applying a pressure to prevent relative movement between parts of a fractured bone in a limb within the splint. The device accommodates and takes up swelling of surrounding tissue, as well as volume changes due to flexing of surrounding muscles. The device is re-usable after the splint is removed.
