The GYPSONA S Plaster of Paris Bandage, sized 10cm x 2.7m, is a high-quality medical device designed for effective and reliable immobilization of fractures and orthopedic support.

It is widely used in hospitals and clinics for both temporary and definitive casting.
Benefits of Use
GYPSONA S Plaster of Paris Bandage offers several advantages for orthopedic care:
- Provides rapid and reliable immobilization, crucial for fracture management.
- Features excellent conformability and moldability, allowing for precise shaping around anatomical contours.
- Delivers a strong and durable cast once set, ensuring robust support.
- Offers a smooth and aesthetically pleasing finish.
- Permits breathability due to the woven gauze structure, enhancing patient comfort.
How to Use
For optimal results and patient safety, follow these steps for application:
- Prepare the limb or body part by applying a stockinette and appropriate padding to protect the skin.
- Immerse the GYPSONA S bandage roll completely into lukewarm water (20-25 degrees Celsius) for approximately 5-10 seconds until bubbling stops.
- Gently squeeze the bandage to remove excess water, ensuring it remains moist but not dripping.
- Apply the bandage smoothly and evenly around the affected area, ensuring even tension and overlap. Avoid wrinkles.
- Mold the cast to the desired anatomical shape while the plaster is still pliable.
- Allow the cast to set and dry completely. Setting time can vary, typically starting within 2-5 minutes and reaching full strength within 24-72 hours.
Caution & Warnings
- For external use only.
- Always ensure adequate padding is used underneath the cast to prevent pressure sores and skin irritation.
- Monitor the patient for excessive heat during the setting process, as Plaster of Paris produces an exothermic reaction.
- Do not apply the bandage too tightly, which could impair circulation.
- Application and removal should be performed by a trained healthcare professional.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Store in a dry place to prevent premature hardening.
