An elongate medical splint product is provided for being dispensed in lengths suitable for a given medical use. The splint product includes a multi-layer moisture-hardenable plaster substrate having first and second opposed major surfaces. A soft foam cushion envelopes the first major surface and opposed marginal portions of the second major surface of the substrate. A moisture absorbent panel overlies opposed marginal portions of the second major surface of the substrate and the cushion. First and second spaced-apart rows of stitches extend along the length of the splint product and through the marginal portions of the substrate, the foam cushion, and the panel to bind the substrate, cushion, and panel together. This forms a unitary bandaging product which can be dispensed, cut to length, and applied without further assembly.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An elongate splint product for being dispensed in lengths suitable for a given medical use, comprising:(a) a multi-layer moisture-hardenable plaster substrate having first and second opposed major surfaces;(b) a soft cushion enveloping said first major surface and opposed marginal portions of said second major surface of said substrate and defining an exposed outermost surface layer of the splint product for residing directly against and protecting the skin of the wearer;(c) a moisture absorbent panel overlying said second major surface of said substrate and opposed marginal portions of said substrate and said cushions, said second major surface of said substrate and said moisture absorbent panel residing in contact with each other and defining a centrally-disposed moisture transfer channel for wicking away moisture from the substrate; and(d) first and second spaced-apart rows of stitches extending along the length of the splint product and through the marginal portions of said substrate, said cushion, and said panel to bind said substrate, cushion and panel together to form a unitary bandaging product which can be dispensed, cut to length, and applied without further assembly.
