Assess distal pulses, motor, and sensation
While maintaining traction, apply padding and splint material (e.g. Ortho-glass) as shown
Splint should extend from the medial aspect of the arm near the axilla around the elbow and up to the acromioclavicular joint
Use a generous amount of padding on the arm to prevent discomfort in the axilla
Maintain position while splint material hardens and secure to arm (e.g. with ace wraps)
Wrap proximal to distal
Apply sling to arm
