A splint is used to provide temporary support to help reduce blood loss, pain or discomfort due to tendon or joint lacerations, sprains and fractures. First, the correct amount of material should be submerged in water until it stops bubbling, and then the excess water squeezed out. After flattening out the layers, the wet splint material is put over a cast padding with the edges folded over the ends. Elastic bandages can be used to secure the splint and keep it in place, and the splint will harden to the contour of your body.
