I believe everyone knows more or less about splints used for fracture. Common splints are made of wood, but in fact wood is harmful to human body. Therefore, splints currently used are made of hard, medium and soft materials. Roll splint is a common splint style. Inside and outside are made of two different materials. The outer surface is made of PVC and the inner surface is made of aluminum plate which is easy to bend.
Rolled splints are used to fix upper limbs or short lower limbs, and two splints can be used to fix fractures. Since PVC on the outside can also be used for fixing neck or finger fractures, it should be noted that it needs to be tailored according to the fracture position of the injured person. Of course, if the injured is dislocated joint, the splint can also be used for fixation. It is characterized in that it can be bent into a desired shape at will, and its weight is relatively light, so that the injured person will not feel very heavy and tired and will not hurt the affected part. Due to the good bending property of aluminum material, it can be well attached to the affected part to ensure the good growth state of the fracture to a greater extent. Moreover, the material also has good X-ray penetrability and water resistance, and can be used repeatedly. Most importantly, it is very convenient to carry and easy to use and operate. It should be specially reminded that when cutting, attention should be paid to the fact that the aluminum material runs out and scratches itself. Cotton yarn or bandage and adhesive tape should be used to firmly seal the aluminum material in PVC material.
Do you know more about roll splints now? When purchasing this simple medical splint, we should also pay attention to the overall quality. We should purchase the splint with excellent quality, so that the aluminum material will be safer and have better fixing effect when wrapped with external materials.
