Sager® Emergency Traction Splints and the Minto Fracture Kit
51
Minto Fracture Kit (MFK700)
Components:
Kit Case
Made of 1000 denier Cordura® with MOLLE attachments for easy field carry.
Universal
The Multi-Angle Connector, or
MAC™
, allows the splint to be applied in any position.
No movement of the fracture site means less injury and pain.
Weight and Size
2.8 lbs, Kit Case 12” x 7” x 5”
MAC
Made of DuPont® high impact plastic, the
MAC
™ has been tested
in extreme heat and cold environments to ensure use in multiple
environments. The
MAC
™ also has a load-bearing weight capacity of
over 220 lbs! The universal fracture response capability of the
MFK
is
attributable to the use of the
MAC
™ which is manipulated free of the
patient and exactly simulates the disfigurement of the fracture. This is
accomplished by holding and adjusting the device adjacent to the
patient’s injury (above, beside, or below) to precisely mimic the shape and
angle of the fracture or joint. Extrication of a patient is made easier with the
MFK
as the splint remains within the silhouette of the injured limb.
Comprehensive Tensor Cravat System
The MFK splint is secured to the patient by latex-free, adhesive-free, Breath-O-Prene®
cravats in various lengths and widths. These odorless and non abrasive elasticized fabric
mounted foam are breathable and wick away moisture by capillary action, making them
cooler to wear in hotter environments. Cravats are Velcro compatible.
The MFK Floats!
The MFK splinting pack is designed to meet the needs of the “Tactical Evaluation” stages of
care. During ‘Tactical Field Care’, this light-weight pack provides Medics with the equipment
they need to stabilize fractures in the field. Since evacuation time is highly variable and
dependent upon the operation, reaching a treatment facility within the “Golden hour” is not
always attainable. The
MFK
allows the Operator to stabilize fractures, joint injuries and
dislocations on the spot.
The
MFK
is light enough to be attached to an already full payload and small enough to be
stashed in aircraft and ground transportation without taking up excessive room.
