Tire (Cast)

Splint (Cast) - a hard cover for a limb or any other part of the body, made of plastic or an open braided bandage impregnated with plaster and used raw. A plaster splint is designed to protect a broken bone and prevent movement of the aligned ends of the bone until they heal completely.

Splints are used to immobilize broken bones and joints. They help keep the bones in the correct position while they heal, preventing additional damage.

There are two main types of tires:

1. Plaster splints. They are made from gauze or other material soaked in a wet plaster bandage, which is then hardened. Plaster splints provide rigid, fixed fixation.

2. Polymer tires. They are made from lightweight synthetic materials such as fiberglass. Such splints are more flexible and comfortable for the patient.

A properly applied splint allows a person to lead a relatively normal life while the fracture is healing. The splint is removed after complete fusion of the bones, usually after 6-8 weeks. In case of malunion or delayed healing, the period of immobilization may be increased.

A splint is a hard cover that is used to protect and immobilize a broken limb or other body part. The splint can be made of plastic or an open bandage that is impregnated with plaster and applied to the fracture site in its raw form.

A gypsum splint is one of the most common types of splints. It is designed to protect the bone from possible movements that could cause it to heal improperly. The cast prevents the bones from moving and keeps the injured part of the body immobile until it heals completely.

The splint is applied by a doctor or nurse after taking an x-ray and assessing the condition of the bone. The splint is usually made individually for each patient and can be removable or permanent. Removable splints are usually applied for a few weeks or months, while non-removable splints are applied for a longer period of time.

After the splint is applied, the patient must follow certain rules and restrictions to avoid the splint becoming dislodged or damaged. For example, he should avoid sudden movements and not use the injured limb to lift heavy objects or perform other physical exercises.

The use of a plaster splint is an important step in the treatment of a fracture and helps speed up the healing process of the bone. However, when using splints, it is necessary to take into account the individual characteristics of the patient and monitor the condition of the injured limb in order to prevent possible complications.

A splint (or Cast) is a hard covering for limbs or other parts of the body that is used to protect against injury and damage. It can be made of plastic or an open bandage covered with plaster. This cover is applied to the damaged area and prevents movement of the bones until they are completely fused, which speeds up the healing process.

The splint can be used to treat fractures, dislocations, bruises, sprains and other injuries. Its use can reduce pain and discomfort, as well as speed up recovery after injury.

However, the tire may also have disadvantages. For example, it can limit the mobility of the injured limb and cause discomfort. In addition, the splint may not always be applied correctly and may cause discomfort when worn.

Overall, the splint is an important tool in the treatment of injuries and damage, but its use must be justified and carried out under the supervision of a physician.
