A composite moldable splint having at least a first splinting member with
an inner foam layer, an intermediate thermoplastic layer, and an external
securing layer. The inner foam layer provides a soft, moisture
transmitting, non-latex padding. The intermediate thermoplastic layer
provides remoldable shape, and rigidity and strength after heat forming
and cooling. The outer securing layer, preferably covered with continuous
loop fabric suitable for hook and loop fastening, provides an essentially
infinite plurality of attachment points for retaining straps including at
least a section of hook fastening material for holding the splint in
place. The layers of the composite moldable splint are preferably heat
welded to form a strong unitary structure that is resistant to
delamination. Composite moldable splints utilizing multiple splinting
members are described.
