The CT EMS is a leg traction splint designed for pre-hospital care and casualty transport. It is primarily used on casualties with mid-line femur fractures. The CT EMS helps relieve casualty pain and prevents further damage to surrounding muscle and tissue whilst reducing the risk of death caused from severed arteries.

Suitable for both paediatric 

The CT EMS is made of carbon tubing which snaps together via an internal bungee. Traction is achieved with a 4 to1 mechanical adjuster using a small line to apply tension. This method results in a very precise and delicate form or traction that is also powerful enough to be effective on extra large adults. The CT EMS is extremely compact, light and strong.
