The TLC® Splint is an ergonomically designed IV armboard. I.V. House worked with leading ergonomic design experts and pediatric nurses to create the TLC Splint, which holds the joint in the ideal orientation for intravenous therapy to improve patient safety and increase nurse efficiency. The TLC Splint has received multiple medical technology awards, including the Silver Edison Award for design excellence in 2019.
I.V. House promotes the Touch, Look, and Compare assessment method for IV therapy. The TLC Splint was thoughtfully and intentionally designed to reinforce each step of the process. See-through openings in the splint allow the nurse to palpate and assess the dorsal side of the extremity and easily compare the surrounding area with the opposite limb. Notable product features include:
For Adult, Geriatric, and Pediatric Patients. The TLC Wrist splint holds the wrist, forearm, and hand in the ideal orientation for IV therapy, using soft straps and Velcro® tabs that are easy to apply and adjust.
For Pediatric and Adult Patients. When antecubital (AC) space is used, the TLC Elbow Splint securely stabilizes the area of flexion, with soft straps that are easy to apply and adjust without restricting circulation.
For Nonambulatory Infants and Newborns. Our TLC Foot Splint is the only product of its kind. Unlike a traditional armboard, the TLC Foot Splint is designed specifically to support the unique anatomy of the foot and ankle.
Our best ideas come from nurses, including our TLC® Splint, the next generation armboard.
Take a look behind the scenes with our product partners at Metaphase Design Group to see how this revolutionary product improves patient safety and increases nurse efficiency.
The TLC® Splint was named a 2019 Silver Edison Award winner.
