The third generation orthopedic casting tape and splint
1. Easier plasticity. 2. Better X-ray radiolucency 3. Lighter 4. Better air permeability
Based on and strengthened the good toughness and strength characteristics of the first and second generation, in the principle of more hommization and more suit for clinical need and around with the aspects of better lightness to use, better convenient to operate, better softness to feel and tightness to mold and so on Chinese and American medical and chemical experts take tree years to make an unremitting effort and do a lot of experiments repeatedly to develop the third generation orthopedic casting tape and splint finally and it will be launched in china in March, 2012.
Characteristics
1. Easier plasticity.
Because adopting special ultra-thin, elastic and soft import materials to make the longitudinal and transversal stretch strength of the fabric to double, it makes the shaping scope of orthopediccasting tape and splint larger and make the orthopedic casting tape and splint shape matched with the complex body shape to tight the body in line with bone' bend comfortably and no folds. This avoids the loss of restoration and second dislocation after restoration in the shaping and realizes to cover the whole treatment procedure of shaping fixation.
2. Better X-ray radiolucency
In the normal circumstances the photograph taken is very clear. When taking the photograph, the tube voltage (KV) is obvious lower than the traditional plaster bandage and splint and the time taken is shorter to greatly reduce the X-ray radiation to body. The traditional plaster bandage and splint photograph are still very vague when using 1.5 times X-ray of orthopedic casting tape and splint photograph taken
3. Lighter
In the premise of guarantying the fixation strength the lighter the texture is, the better the patient feels with no heaviness and more comfortable. The weight of the third generation orthopedic casting tape adopted import light texture fabric is only three fifths of fiberglass cast; The third generation splint made of import iodinated fabric is light weight and can be bacteriostasis and anti-infection.
4. Better air permeability
Because the third generation orthopedic casting tape's fabric is light and thin and splint's fabric is composed of big tinny hole net structure, this make them better air permeability, skin evaporated water full penetration and prevention of inch, odor and bacterial inflection to avoid skin atrophy. At the same time the third generation orthopedic casting tape and splint materials are stable structure and are difficult to break down and don't mind water soak and liquid erosion.
