Commonly Asked Questions

What are the main differences between casts and splints?

Casts and Splints are both designed to immobilize and support injuries. A cast completely encompasses the injured limb, but a splint does not. Splints allow more room for swelling, but are not as effective at immobilizing the injury. Prefabricated splints are available in a wide range of materials and functions, but physicians will often use casting materials to create a custom, form-fitted splint. Depending on the nature of the injury, a physician will decide whether to use a splint or a cast. Splints are usually preferred if possible, as they are cheaper, easier to apply, and have lower risk of complications.

What are the main components of a splint?

There are many different kinds of splints, available in a wide range of shapes, materials, and purposes. Splints generally consist of a rigid splinting material, padding, and a mechanism to hold the splint in place, such as a soft elastic bandage.
