Your patient is a 28-year-old male who was ejected from his motorcycle after striking a parked vehicle. He has multiple deformities to his upper and lower extremities on both sides. Which of the following would be the BEST way to immobilize this patient's extremities prior to transport?
A) Use traction splints for the lower extremities and allow the upper extremities to be immobilized by the long backboard.
B) Use moldable splints for the upper and lower extremities, padding any voids to fully stabilize the fractures.
C) Use padded board splints for the upper extremities and PASG for the lower extremities.
D) Immobilize the patient to a long backboard without splinting the extremities individually.
