Anyone out there have good high resolution pictures of SAM splints in use? I am working on a training class on splinting and I am in need of some good pictures. If anyone can be of help I would appreciate it!
Ray, I noticed you're from St. Louis, what high school did you go to?
is an imaginative way to use a SAM.

I went to Kirkwood, now living in SoCal.
Welcome to the forums too by the way.

P.S. So Mikie333, what high school did you go to?
Those are actually quite helpful, I am essentially teaching leg and arm splints. The conditions they are operating in.....no c collars. Although I am very interested in how well a sam would work in that capacity....better than nothing.
I doubt they would be helpful at all for C-spine- in fact I would not try it because it could cause further harm. If you dont have a c-collar available, best bet is to manually hold the pt in C-spine until backup or PI arrives
