Adult Pelvic Binder – Yellow
A pelvic binder is a medical device stabilising the pelvis in suspected pelvic fractures, particularly open-book fractures. It applies circumferential pressure to reduce bleeding and prevent further injury. Commonly used in emergency settings, it is a critical tool for trauma care and pre-hospital stabilisation.
Features and Benefits
- Circumferential Compression: Applies even pressure around the pelvis to reduce and stabilise fractures
- Non-Stretchable Material: Ensures firm support and adequate compression
- One-Size-Fits-Most Design: Adjustable to fit a wide range of body types
- Radiolucent Construction: Can remain in place during X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs
- Quick Application: Easily applied by a single responder in emergency settings
- Lightweight and Compact: Ideal for pre-hospital and in-hospital use
- Hemorrhage Control: Reduces pelvic volume to limit internal bleeding, predominantly venous and cancellous bone bleeding
- Stabilisation: Minimises movement of fractured bones, reducing pain and preventing further injury
- Improved Outcomes: May reduce the need for blood transfusions and shorten hospital stays
- Early Intervention: Enables rapid stabilisation at the injury scene, improving survival rates
- Post-Surgical Support: Can aid in recovery by reducing strain on the pelvis.
