The Posey® Arm Splint
In clinical settings where limb stabilization is essential, the Posey® Arm Splint offers an effective, non-rigid solution for both upper and lower extremities. Designed with patient comfort and caregiver ease-of-use in mind, it helps manage and support delicate limbs during treatment, healing, and IV therapy.
Designed for Versatility
Unlike rigid orthotic devices, the Posey Arm Splint delivers support with a soft structure that adapts to the unique shape of each patient’s limb. Key features include:
- Polystyrene bead fill: Conforms to the body, helping distribute pressure evenly and reduce the risk of pressure sores.
- 100% cotton lining: Breathable and gentle on skin for extended wear.
- Durable vinyl mesh exterior: Ensures wipe-clean hygiene and structural integrity.
- Zippered fill access: Customizable volume for individual patient comfort and therapeutic need.
- Wide size range: Available from pediatric to adult leg sizes.
Whether used for the arm, wrist, elbow, or knee, the Posey Splint supports multiple clinical scenarios.
Clinical Utility
The Posey Arm Splint is frequently used in:
- IV therapy: Maintaining arm stability during cannulation and infusion.
- Post-fracture care: Supporting limbs with compound fractures requiring repeated access or gentle repositioning.
- Neurological cases: Assisting with joint positioning in patients with spasticity or limited voluntary control.
Its adaptability makes it a favored choice in orthopedics, geriatrics, pediatrics, and home care settings.
Simple, Secure Application
Applying the Posey Arm Splint is fast and intuitive:
- Release the hook-and-loop straps and open the splint fully.
- Position the splint: align it so that the plastic buckles face the patient. For arms, center over the elbow; for legs, center over the knee.
- Secure the straps snugly, leaving enough room to insert two fingers between the splint and the limb—critical for maintaining circulation.
- Resize if needed: Fold the external panel inward to reduce width for smaller limbs.
The splint’s flexible structure and intuitive fastening system mean it can be adjusted or reapplied quickly—especially useful in high-acuity settings.
