ABSTRACT:
A limb positioning and stabilizing device provides, in a unitary construction, an arcuate limb engaging element, which, when forced open, will return to its original shape when the force is no longer applied, for embracing an injured limb, and also provides a wide transverse support base, which is integral with the limb engaging element, for bracing the limb engaging element when the device is in operation. The device further provides a padded inner lining for protecting the injured limb and an attachment means for attaching a plurality of the devices in parallel for use with longer limbs.
