Advantages of KANGDA Orthopedic SPLINT

With the continuous development of modern orthopedic technology, more and more new technologies and methods have been applied in the treatment of orthopedic diseases. Medical polymer splints, as external fixation devices, have been widely popularized and used in the orthopedic medical industry. Many people also want to learn about the advantages of polymer splints. Below is a brief introduction to the advantages of KANGDA Orthopedic SPLINT.

Non-invasive Fixation

In clinical practice, open surgical reduction is sometimes chosen. However, open surgical reduction may require stripping the periosteum, and improper handling can lead to complications such as nonunion and osteonecrosis. Additionally, the internal fixation device needs to be removed after the fracture heals, which undoubtedly adds new trauma to the original surgical wound. The splint fixation method for fractures just makes up for the shortcomings of surgery while achieving the effect of fixing fractures.

Simple Operation

Polymer splints have the advantage of simple operation, especially in the fixation and treatment of tibial fractures, upper limb forearm fractures, etc. Therefore, polymer splint fixation is deeply favored by grassroots hospitals and has been widely used.

Facilitating Early Recovery

Compared with Plaster Bandage fixation, external fixation splints have a smaller fixation range, generally not including the upper and lower joints of the fracture, and facilitate early functional exercise of the injured. Splint fixation also does not hinder the longitudinal contraction of muscles. When muscles contract, they can squeeze the fracture ends, which is conducive to fracture healing and can avoid disuse muscle atrophy and osteoporosis caused by restricted limb movement.

Convenient for Doctors' Examination and Adjustment

Since polymer splints fix fractures by wrapping the splint around the limb with bandages, they have high adjustability. If the patient experiences limb blood circulation problems during fixation or if poor alignment of the fracture is found during examination, doctors can make timely adjustments to prevent more serious consequences!
