The SAM Pelvic Sling II is the only force-regulated circumferential pelvic belt scientifically proven to safely stabilise open-book pelvic ring fractures in the critical first hour after major trauma. Its one-piece design with an audible click mechanism confirms when optimal compressive force has been reached, removing the guesswork that can lead to over- or under-tightening in high-pressure pre-hospital scenarios. This medium size fits patients with a circumference of 32 to 50 inches.
Key Features
Applications
Used by NHS ambulance services, HEMS air ambulance teams, A&E trauma units, military medical teams and mountain rescue across the UK. Critical for stabilising suspected pelvic fractures from road traffic collisions, falls from height and crush injuries before hospital transfer. Apply at the level of the greater trochanters and secure using the three-step buckle system until the click is heard.
