Abstract:
This is the first of several how-to articles on casting and splinting that will appear intermittently in coming months. Many kinds of splints and casts can be made from a few simple materials, reducing the need to keep prefabricated products on hand. The authors find that making their own splints and casts pays dividends in patient satisfaction and cost savings.
