The SAM Pelvic Sling^™ II is the first and only force-controlled circumferential pelvic belt. Peer-reviewed studies show it safely and effectively reduces and stabilizes open-book pelvic ring fractures. The SAM Pelvic Sling II was designed not to over-tighten or under-tighten, unlike other commercial binders which allow unlimited force to be applied to the patient. The SAM Pelvic Sling II’s patented Autostop^™ buckle is programmed to stop your pull once the correct compression force has been obtained. This is vital in high stress environments where over-tightening by emergency medical personnel under duress could potentially be extreme and harmful.  The SAM Pelvic Sling II offers a simpler one-piece design with no detachable hardware. It is compact, easy to use (only three steps), and quick to apply (usually in less than one minute). It does not require a fine touch to operate and gives clear feedback by sound and feel to confirm correct application.  The sling is durable and unaffected by extremes of moisture and temperature or by exposure to hard or sharp objects. It is also MRI safe, and can be cleaned for re-use with common detergents or anti-microbial solutions. It can be used in CT-scans.

Features:

• Scientifically and clinically proven to provide safe and effective force to stabilize pelvic fractures
• Buckle maintains correct force; cannot be over-tightened
• Standard size fits 98% of population, Small and Large sizes available for children or large patients
• “Click” provides clear feedback to confirm correct application
• Pulling gradually and symmetrically increases sling tension and reduces the pelvis

• Radiolucent (allowing for X-rays and CT-scans without removal)
• Ease of application: just insert belt through buckle, pull strap, and secure
• Velcro^® on strap and sling for quick and easy fastening
• Reusable, not a onetime use device
