Plastering the thumb

Tibial fractures--a useful plastering technique.

The management of the acute tibial fracture is controversial, since no single method is appropriate in all circumstances and treatment indications often overlap. Given the potential problems in the management of this often difficult fracture, it is important that the attending clinician be familiar with both operative and conservative methods of treatment. In recent years, operative interventio...

Unconstrained Paving and Plastering: Progress Update

Modeling and simulation has become an essential step in the engineering design process. Modeling and simulation can be used during either the original design phases, or on assessment of existing designs. In either case, the end result is increased confidence in the design, faster time to market, and reduced engineering cost. An essential step in modeling and simulation is the creation of a fini...

A thermoplastic thumb post for the treatment of thumb-sucking.

This article was accepted fur publication September 26, 1991. Behavioral research has indicated that thumbsucking often covaries with hair pulling and that the elimination of thumb-sucking can result in the elimination of the hair pulling with which it was associated (e.g., Frlman & Hove, 1987; Knell & Moore, 1988). Treatments for persistent thumb-sucking, however, have shown minimal or transie...
