Which of the following is NOT a common item for use as a splint?

A flashlight is typically not considered a common item used as a splint for immobilizing injured limbs. When treating a suspected fracture or severe sprain, the primary objective with a splint is to stabilize the injury and prevent further damage. Common splinting materials are generally rigid enough to provide the necessary support and can include items that are sturdy and easy to handle.

A rifle, an E-tool, and tent poles and stakes are all items that can offer the necessary rigidity and stability when used as splints. These items can be secured to the injured limb effectively, preventing movement and allowing the individual to be safely transported for further medical care. Flashlights, while they may have a solid body, lack the required structural support to effectively serve as a splint, making them unsuitable for this purpose.
