*Padded boards. Use thin splints to push cravats or straps under the patient at the natural voids (such as the small of the back and backs of the knees) and readjust them so they will pass across the chest, the abdomen just below the belt, below the crotch, above and below the knee, and at the ankle. Splint with two long padded boards. Ideally one should be long enough to extend from the patient's armpit to beyond the foot. The other should be long enough to extend from the crotch to beyond the foot. Cushion with padding in the armpit and crotch, and pad all voids created at the ankle and knee. Secure the boards with the cravats or straps.
