Abstract
This invention is directed toward a splint, where there is a layer of material, such as fabric-laminated foam neoprene, that encompasses a part of the body intended to be immobilized, supported, or protected, and permanently secured to this layer of material is a low temperature thermoplastic. This thermoplastic is rigid when cool, and malleable when heated. The temperature at which the thermoplastic is malleable is low enough so that the splint can be molded directly on the body. The thermoplastic can be heated, molded, and cooled together with the layer of material. The combined elements of the low temperature thermoplastic with the layer of material create a removable remoldable splint that can be immersed in water without degrading the integrity of the splint.
