Slishman Traction Splint (STS) - Gen 2
The Slishman Traction Splint Gen2 (STS Gen2) offers all the benefits of the original STS plus additional advances found in the Rescue Essentials STS-Compact.
Designed to overcome the operational difficulties of older traction splints, the STS Gen2 is the fastest splint to apply, reducing on-scene times and maximizing patient comfort.
Unlike other traction splints, the STS Gen2 requires no individual poles or complicated mechanisms to assemble. It can be applied in less than 60 seconds, making it the go-to solution in emergencies.
The traction mechanism is located at the patient's hip, with femur traction applied by extending the pole segments. This creates a pushing force on the ankle or distal strap, rather than pulling distally from the foot as with conventional traction splints.
