Basic casting techniques.
Plaster of Paris in bandage or slab form is still the most common material used for immobilisation of injured limbs. It is inexpensive and can be used with ease to produce a smooth, conforming and safe cast. Many of the synthetic materials now available for casting also have excellent conforming characteristics. They produce light and extremely durable casts, are less messy during application and their use is increasing.
