Sam Pelvic Sling II, XL

The SAM Pelvic Sling II is the first and only force-controlled circumferential pelvic belt scientifically proven in peer-reviewed studies to safely and effectively reduce and stabilize open-book pelvic ring fractures.
The SAM Pelvic Sling II was designed not to over-tighten or under-tighten, unlike other commercial binders which allow unlimited force to be applied to the patient.
Researchers at Legacy Health System utilized cadaver studies and clinical trials to determine the optimum range of force required to safely and effectively close an unstable pelvic fracture.
The SAM Pelvic Sling II's patented Autostop buckle is programmed to stop your pull once the correct compression force has been obtained.
This is vital in high stress environments where over-tightening by emergency medical personnel under duress could potentially be extreme and harmful.
Trauma surgeons around the world recognize the importance of stabilizing pelvic fractures during the critical first "golden hour" following severe trauma.
Because of the potentially devastating hemorrhage associated with such fractures, standard first aid protocol includes applying some type of circumferential binder around the victim's hips.
The SAM Pelvic Sling II offers a simpler one-piece design with no detachable hardware.
It is compact, easy to use (only three steps), and quick to apply (usually in less than one minute).
The standard size fits (without cutting or trimming) 98% of the adult population. It does not require a fine touch to operate and gives clear feedback by sound and feel to confirm correct application.
The sling is durable and unaffected by extremes of moisture and temperature or by exposure to hard or sharp objects.
It is also radiolucent, MRI safe, and can be cleaned for re-use with common detergents or anti-microbial solutions.
