Influence of wire extension and type on
splint rigidity--evaluation by a dynamic and a static measuring method.
However, this improvement, due to the increase in VDO, is not independent of the thickness of the
splint. Chakfa et al.
A thumb spica
splint (FIGURE 2) is used to achieve this restriction.
Multivariable logistic regression analysis was subsequently performed on predictors that were statistically significant in the univariate analysis (except time to first
splint removal, which was excluded from the multivariable analysis because the model was poorly fitted with this variable due to missing values).
Vaseline gauze nasal packs were removed 48 hours and nasal
splint was removed one week postoperatively1,13,22.
In recent years in particular, silicone nasal septal
splints with integral airway have been used to reduce pain and increase patient comfort postoperatively (3-5).
(ii) No regular follow-up visits or use of different
splints or arthrocentesis for TMD treatment before starting the
splint therapy with 3 mm thick
splintsTechnique for Nasal Surgery Patients with Nasal
Splints in Place (Modified Double Barrel Technique).
The first one is the biomechanical approach which emphasised the prevention or correction of deformity by mechanical application of
splints. The second one is neurophysiological approach, but the exact effects of splinting on spasticity are undefined.
The mean value of linear deviation between the condylar position at habitual occlusion and condylar position at occlusion of the stabilization
splint was 2.04[+ or -]1.18 mm (minimum 0.59 mm, maximum 4.35 mm) for the splintl group.
(18) conducted a research and reported that an efficient
splint is essential for the maintenance of the avulsed tooth; there are several forms and materials for splinting, such as: resin, by itself or with a flexible arch of nylon or metal wire, orthodontic brackets with malleable arch, and vestibular arches or bars.
In this study, the nasal
splint was better tolerated following septoplasty than was the Merocel tampon.
