[Early functional treatment of the injured shoulder supported by an active shoulder bandage].

The following study shows the results of treatment of 29 patients suffering from rotatory cuff lesion and of 20 patients with tendinosis. The results of functional physiotherapy of the patients with rotatory cuff lesion correspond to the results of post-operative treatment described in other studies. As a result of early functional physiotherapy backed up by an active shoulder support, the treatment was both improved and shortened considerably. The accompanying pain relief achieved an earlier usability of the shoulder joint in both groups of patients. Four patients with rotatory cuff lesions were resistant to physiotherapy and finally had to undergo surgery.

[Functional anatomy in tape bandages of the ankle/foot].

The use of adhesive tape has proved to be a good alternative to treat several types of trauma and overuse syndromes at the upper ankle joint and the foot. According to the different injuries and problems the varied uses are presented. Especially the importance of the functional anatomy is emphasized for initiating a successful taping procedure. The techniques presented are offered merely as recognized methods which have been found effective and which should stimulate to improve this type of treatment.

The Acuvue disposable contact lens as a therapeutic bandage lens.

The Bio-Cor collagen shield (Bausch and Lomb, Rochester, NY) is thought to speed corneal epithelial healing and is available in dissolution rates of 12, 24, and 72 hours to suit the needs of the patient. It often is recommended over soft hydrophilic therapeutic lenses for short-term use, such as postoperatively and after corneal abrasions, in which cases the lens should dissolve within the specified period of time. I found these lenses to be unreliable in their dissolution rates. I presented four cases of corneal epithelial breakdown in which the collagen lenses were tried but were not successful. All cases did well with a hydrophilic soft lens, namely the Acuvue disposable lens, used for therapeutic purposes. The advantage of using a disposable lens rather than a standard therapeutic soft lens is its lower cost. Disposable lenses are cheaper than both regular soft lenses and collagen shields. It makes good economic sense to try these as a therapeutic lens of first choice when one is needed.

Sports strapping and bandaging.

Strapping with adhesive tape plays a significant part in the prevention of joint injuries, particularly at the ankle and hand, and is important during early management of injury and rehabilitation. Recurrence of injury when the athlete recommences training is less likely with supportive strapping.

Allergic contact dermatitis to adhesive bandages.

More than two billion Band-Aid Brand Sheer Strips are used in the United States yearly, yet allergic contact dermatitis resulting from their use is nearly nonexistent. We report four patients with allergic reactions to these strips. One patient reacted to tricresyl phosphate, the plasticizer in the vinyl backing; another patient was allergic to 2,5-di(tertiary-amyl)hydroquinone, the antioxidant in the adhesive. In the other two patients, the allergic contact dermatitis remains unexplained.
