Dlaha

Dlaha pro fixaci dolních končetin

Dlaha je pomůcka využívaná v ortopedii k podpírání poraněné části těla, zejména kloubů v okolí zlomeniny, aby tak došlo k znehybnění konkrétní postižené oblasti. Existují různé typy dlah, přičemž nejpoužívanější je tzv. žebříčkovitá dlaha, která je vyrobena ze zinkového drátu a lze ji přizpůsobit tvaru končetiny. Materiál, ze kterého jsou zhotoveny se různí — mohou být vyrobeny ze sádrového obinadla či plastu. Specifickým typem dlahy je tzv. pneumatická dlaha, což je vak z výhradně plastické hmoty, do které se raněná končetina vloží, následně se vak důkladně sešněruje a napustí vzduchem.[1]

Dlaha dorzální, volární nebo cirkulární je nejčastěji užívána při zlomeninách nebo po operacích případně zánětů šlach.

In applying plaster to approximate wound edges, spaceshould be left between the strips to provide for the escape of any 60 OFERATIXG ROOM AXD THE PATIEXT discharge that may form. If the ends be turned under for adistance of a quarter of an inch or so, and the surfaces stucktogether, the strips can be the more reachly raised and with lessannoyance to the patient than if the ends be directly appliedto the skin. Resin plaster, when used for any purpose, must be heated inorder to make it adhere. When this form of plaster is used, thedegree of heat which it may have absorbed should be tested byapplying the reverse side of the plaster to the back of the opera-tors hand before the plaster is placed on the patients skin;otherwise blistering may result from the application of too greatheat.
