Lay another lintine shape on the plasticshape and press all well together with the hands. Trim unevenedges, as shown in Figure 5. The splint is then ready for application to the limb and, asshown in Figure 6, is as pliable as a wet wash-rag, and back,front and body are as one piece. The limb is held in the de-sired position, the splint applied accurately to all its inequalities,without any padding whatever, and bound to the limb with asmoothly applied roller bandage, as shown in Figure T. The second splint is made and applied to the other aspectof the limb with a second roller, as appears in Figure 8. The splints, of course, soon harden, and when removed theyare light, firm, clean, accurately fitting and easily reapplied.With their use, pressure sores are unknown and pads both un-necessary and inadvisable.
