What's the difference between elastic bandage, polymer bandage and polymer splint?

These three kinds are mainly suitable for the fixation of orthopedics or orthopedic surgery, the auxiliary tools of molds and prostheses, and the protective brackets of burn sites, and they are good external fixation materials. Polymer splint is a substitute product of gypsum bandage, which has obvious advantages compared with gypsum bandage. Hajdic products production and sales.

Elastic bandage: woven from natural fibers, the material is soft and extremely elastic. Mainly used for surgical dressing nursing. It has the advantages of high elasticity, unrestricted joint movement after use, no contraction, no obstruction to blood circulation or joint displacement, good ventilation, no condensation of water vapor on the wound, and convenient carrying. Usage characteristics: easy to use, good air permeability, not easy to be infected, conducive to rapid wound healing, rapid dressing change, and does not affect the daily life of patients.

Polymer bandage: It consists of multiple layers of polymer fibers impregnated with polyurethane and polyester. It has the characteristics of fast hardening, high strength and no fear of water. It is an upgraded product of traditional plaster bandage. Suitable for external fixation of fractures in various parts of the body and orthopedic surgery; It can also be used to make trays, prosthetic AIDS and various auxiliary tools.

Polymer plywood: At present, plywood made of synthetic materials in China includes: glass fiber plywood, polyurethane plywood, resin plywood, inflatable plywood, etc. Polymer splint has high hardness and light weight: the polymer bandage hardness after curing is 20 times that of traditional gypsum, which ensures the reliable and firm fixation of polymer splint. Less fixing materials and light weight, equivalent to 1/5 of gypsum weight and 1/3 of gypsum thickness, can reduce the load of affected parts, reduce the load of functional exercise after fixation, promote blood circulation and promote healing.
