Over the past 300 years, medical plaster as well as the methodology of its imposition remained practically unchanged. However with the advent of the 21st century and the emergence of a number of new technologies, designers and engineers got to him. Plaster of the future It is proposed to print on a 3D printer. The new development has already been awarded the award for innovative design, because apart from much more accurate appearance, it can speed healing injuries. Reported reduction in recovery period achieved by using ultrasound. New Product, dubbed Osteoid Medical Cast, is a product four months of hard work by a design student from Turkey. “IN conventional gypsum ventilation is sacrificed for structural integrity, says Deniz Karasakhin in his article. – As a result, this leads to the appearance of itching and an unpleasant odor. In addition, due to the specificity of the material used, it is obtained very bulky, heavy, and also limits the possibilities пациента по части водных процедур”.

This is achieved due to the fact what it creates by 3D printing and perfectly matches the shape hands of the patient. To ensure maximum fit the injured limb with plaster, Denise suggests scanning it with using a 3D scanner. After the procedure is completed, data will be transferred to a special program responsible for modeling of the future product. It is software able to determine the overall size and geometry of the finished gypsum.

However, the main highlight of the product proposed by Denise consists in the inclusion of a stimulator of pulsed ultrasound low intensity (LIPUS) to be placed directly onto the patient’s skin. Due to the availability of this new gypsum devices will speed up the healing process. By student data, the use of a stimulant for only 20 minutes per day will reduce the healing time to 38%, and the total speed of rehabilitation, compared to modern gypsum, will increase by 80%. So far, the product is under development, therefore, the date of its appearance on the market is unknown. However how experts say its appearance could revolutionize fracture treatment technologies.
