Description
The Essity Dynacast Prelude is a synthetic splinting system designed for the immobilization and support of fresh fractures and soft tissue injuries. It is composed of a fibreglass core covered by a soft polypropylene padding, offering a clean and simple application for healthcare professionals. This ready-to-use splint provides a modern alternative to conventional plaster of Paris for external rigid immobilization of various injuries.
All-in-One System: The splint is a pre-assembled system with integrated padding, which can simplify and shorten application time.

Comfortable Padding: Soft polypropylene padding helps to minimize the risk of pressure points and wicks moisture away from the skin for patient comfort. Versatile Format: The pre-cut format allows clinicians to use the exact length needed, suiting various indications and reducing waste.
