Design and development of radial arm board / Nabill Hidzir Pauzi
Angiography procedure is a test to observe the arteries in the limb using an x-ray and a special dye. During the procedure, the patient’s arm needs to hold still to avoid incidents, a device called the radial arm board is used to assist holding the arm of the patients. Therefore, a device is needed...

Angiography procedure is a test to observe the arteries in the limb using an x-ray and a special dye. During the procedure, the patient’s arm needs to hold still to avoid incidents, a device called the radial arm board is used to assist holding the arm of the patients. Therefore, a device is needed to assist in holding the arms of the patients. In an association with Hospital UiTM Sg. Buloh, the facility has their own self-made radial arm board. However, the board which consists of a big plane board is not ergonomic to be used by patients for a long period.
