About Pelvic Slings
When pelvic trauma has occurred, binding the hips quickly and effectively is imperative to reduce the risk of complications, including internal bleeding. Traditionally, a sheet has been used to bring the pelvis together, but unfortunately, optimal tightness is extremely difficult to achieve and it will loosen over time.
T-POD® Pelvic Stabilizer is a specialized pelvic sling, developed to make the job of binding the pelvis more effective and easier to accomplish. It is the only pelvic sling to offer simultaneous circumferential compression, through its patented Mechanical Advantage® pulley system. T-POD® easily draws the pelvic ring closed without straining and holds the pressure evenly while it is in use.
T-POD® is effective in a variety of pelvic trauma situations. In fact, it can successfully support and stabilize the pelvis with a variety of injuries and situations, including:
Auto and motorcycle accidents Individuals who have experienced a fall Snowboard, skiing, snowmobile or other sporting accidents Workers who have fallen or been crushed Post-surgery for caesarian sections, hernias, or hysterectomies
