Hearing Aid
Splint
Andante
In the context of emergency medicine, the Andante splint enables simple, pain-free support of fractures anywhere on the leg, including the femoral neck. The optimal stabilisation of the fractured area markedly improves the clarity of the radiographic images taken. The splint is manufactured from an X-ray-transparent, non-magnetic material and is thus suitable for all medical imaging procedures.
Statement by the Jury
The splint’s ergonomic design makes it intuitive to use, indicating the optimal positioning of the entire leg and providing significant pain reduction for the patient.
