KRUUSE Small Rapid Forward Splint: Effective Stabilization for Forelimbs

The KRUUSE Small Foreleg Rapid Splint has been specifically designed to provide an effective and quick solution for immobilizing the forelimbs of small animals. Primarily indicated for fractures, tendon injuries, or post-surgical recovery, this splint offers a robust and adaptable structure that ensures proper bone alignment and orthopedic support.

Materials and Design

Made of transparent, perforated plastic, this splint combines lightness with adequate structural rigidity. The perforations allow for optimal ventilation, reducing the risk of moisture buildup or skin irritation. Its ergonomic design facilitates anatomical placement on the animal's forelimb, minimizing the risk of undue pressure on soft tissues.

Application mode

It is essential that the bandage be applied using appropriate veterinary technique to avoid circulatory or compression complications. The material's surface allows for excellent adhesion with cohesive or adhesive veterinary bandages.
