Broken-bone brace (6)

I believe the answer is:

splint

(Other definitions for splint that I've seen before include "Rigid support for injured limb" , "'It's used to immobilise a broken leg, say (6)'" , "Firelighter" , "Straight object to keep bone in place" , "Fire lighter" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
