DELTACAST ELITE Synthetic Polyester Casting Tape: Lightweight & Strong Immobilization
DELTACAST ELITE Synthetic Polyester Casting Tape, measuring 5cm x 3.6m in a light blue hue, provides reliable and comfortable immobilization for fractures, sprains, and other orthopedic injuries.
Manufactured by BSN medical (part of Essity), this casting tape is engineered with a high-quality polyester substrate impregnated with a water-activated polyurethane resin, ensuring both strength and ease of application.
It is an excellent choice for creating casts that are lightweight, durable, and radiolucent, allowing for clear X-ray imaging without cast removal.
Benefits of Use
- Superior Strength & Durability: Offers robust support while remaining lightweight, ensuring patient comfort and effective immobilization.
- Radiolucent: Allows for excellent X-ray penetration, facilitating clear imaging without the need to remove the cast.
- Highly Conformable: Adapts easily to body contours, providing a smooth, custom fit and reducing pressure points.
- Breathable: The synthetic material promotes airflow, helping to reduce skin maceration and improve patient hygiene.
- Water-Resistant: Once fully cured, the cast is resistant to water, allowing patients to shower with proper protection.
- Smooth Finish: Provides a comfortable, non-irritating surface against clothing and skin.
How to Use
- Ensure patient's limb is clean, dry, and free of oils or lotions.
- Apply appropriate stockinette and padding to protect the skin and bony prominences.
- Wear protective gloves before handling the casting tape.
- Immerse the DELTACAST ELITE roll in water at room temperature (21-24°C) for 5-10 seconds, squeezing gently to ensure complete saturation.
- Remove from water and squeeze out any excess water.
- Begin wrapping the limb spirally, overlapping by approximately one-half to two-thirds the width of the tape.
- Mold the cast smoothly and gently to the anatomical contours, ensuring even pressure.
- Allow the cast to set. Initial setting occurs within 3-5 minutes. The cast will be weight-bearing in approximately 30 minutes and fully cured within 24 hours.
Caution & Warnings
- Always use protective gloves during application as the resin is sticky before curing.
- Ensure adequate padding is used to prevent pressure sores and skin irritation.
- Monitor for signs of neurovascular compromise (e.g., numbness, tingling, excessive swelling, discoloration) after cast application and instruct the patient on when to seek medical attention.
- Do not apply directly to open wounds or compromised skin.
- Keep the casting tape dry and sealed in its foil pouch until ready for immediate use.
- Application should be performed by a trained healthcare professional.
