Materials that should NOT be used to secure a splint would include:

  1. Cord (SABC )
  2. twine
  3. tourniquet
  4. baling wire
  5. electrical wires (cold of course) or telephone wire/cords
  6. plastic ties (like police use for handcuffs)
  7. wire such as a metal coat hanger
  8. glue or adhesives
  9. packing tape (wide, like used on boxes) wrapped fully around and around the splint
  10. anything that can stab, pinch, poke, cut, or cut off circulation!

Any of those can cause damage to the skin/limb or cut off circulation, or impede getting medical attention. (Can you imagine trying to remove a splint that is wrapped in packing tape or glued on!)
CORD
