Plaster Cast Bandage

Gypsum Plaster Cast bandage is made of pasted gauze bandage and hydrated gypsum powder. It can be hardened and shaped in a short time after soaking in water. It has strong shaping ability and good stability. It is used for fixing orthopedics or orthopedics, making molds, auxiliary appliances of prosthetics, protective supports for burn parts, etc.

Method of dressing plaster bandage：

After bone and joint injury and orthopedic surgery, in order to maintain the position after fracture reduction or orthopedic surgery, the technology of giving appropriate materials and methods to maintain is called fixation. Among them, the basic method of bandaging plaster bandage is also particularly important. If the bandage is good, it will reduce the pain of patients, and it will be faster. On the contrary, it can be imagined, The following method is how to wrap plaster bandage:

Step：

During operation, generally wrap from top to bottom. Roll the plaster roll forward close to the limb, so that the lower bandage covers 1 / 3 of the upper bandage, and pay attention to keeping the plaster bandage flat.

Where the curves of the trunk and limbs are obvious and the thickness varies, when it is necessary to move the bandage up and down, lift the loose part of the bandage and pull it back for discount to make the bandage fit the surface. The method of turning the plaster roll cannot be used to eliminate the loose part of the bandage, otherwise, wrinkles can be formed on the inner layer of the plaster bandage and compress the skin.

The operation shall be rapid, agile and accurate, and the two hands shall cooperate with each other, that is, wrap the bandage with one hand and smooth it in the opposite direction with the other hand, so as to make each layer of plaster closely fit without leaving any gap.

The upper and lower edges and joints of plaster should be thickened appropriately to enhance its fixation effect

The thickness of the whole gypsum is based on the principle of no fracture, generally 8-12 layers.

Before the plaster is dried, the body position of the affected limb cannot be changed, otherwise the plaster will break and lose its fixation effect, and may produce inward convex folds on the flexor side of the joint. This fold has no obvious appearance, but inward can compress the skin and even affect the limb blood supply. When supporting the plaster, the assistant can only use the palm, not the fingers, because it will also cause the protrusion of the plaster and compress the affected limb.

Matters needing attention

1. When the bandage is immersed, the water temperature must be 25 ℃ - 30 ℃, and the immersion time must be about 5-15 seconds.

2. The winding process of gypsum bandage must be completed within its curing time.

3. Store in a well ventilated room with relative humidity no more than 80%, no corrosive gas.

Scope of application:

Plaster cast bandage is suitable for orthopedic fracture fixation, external fixation of orthopedic surgery, inflammatory limb braking, osteomyelitis, bone tuberculosis, bone tumor surgery and limb fixation of bone arthroplasty. It can also be used to make mold models such as supporting plates, prosthetic auxiliary tools and auxiliary objects of various supporting tools.
