SAM® Pelvic Sling is the first and only force-controlled circumferential pelvic belt. Featuring an optimized one-piece design, it’s scientifically proven to safely and effectively reduce and stabilize open-book pelvic ring fractures.
The patented SAM® AUTOSTOP buckle acts to avoid over- or under-tightening of SAM® Pelvic Sling. Once optimal compressive force is reached, two prongs activate, clicking to confirm correct application. The sling is secured in place with its Velcro® system strap.SAM® Pelvic Sling is designed for maximum comfort, able to withstand extreme temperature or exposure to hard or sharp objects while remaining comfortable for extended durations. And its standard size fits 95% of the adult population.
AVAILABLE IN 3 SIZES

SAM® AUTOSTOP BUCKLE
Tactile and audible “click” provides clear feedback, confi rming proper application and preventing over-tightening while maintaining optimal force.
