I am a junior doctor working in remote/regional areas in Australia, and I've been looking for a clear book on how to do plaster splints and casts properly for a while! Most ortho/ED books these days seem to focus more on fibreglass casts or give vague instructions on what sort of cast should be done without any pictures, so I took a chance and bought this book I'd never heard of before and I love it!This book is great for flipping through and reminding yourself what position the patient should be in, and where the cast should be placed to cover which joints etc, it also goes through other useful orthopedic skills such as nerve blocks and reductions.It's taken a lot of confusion and mystery out of casting for me.
This book is one of the only current options in the field of casting and splinting. Generally it offers reasonable solutions to most modern casting and splinting requirements and is a useful supplement top competent instructions. On the down side, it assumes basic knowledge and experience , and the solutions it provides are not necessarily current "Best Practice". That said, there are very few decent books in this category, and this is the best currently available for the student of casting and splinting.
I couldn't have asked for a better book. This book covers all the basics in detail and is well-illustrated. It is indispensable in the clinic. If you want an excellent book to help reinforce your casting and splinting skills or to learn some new ones, by all means get this book!
thank you so much , very fast shipmentand good dealing and the shipment exactly as described
