Enhancing Splinting Confidence through Inter-Residency Education: An Educational Workshop [PDF]

, 2020
Introduction. The initial treatment for many orthopaedic injuries is splinting. Unfortunately, formal musculoskeletal training is limited in primary care leading to deficiencies in competency and confidence. Suboptimal splints can result in complications

Development of three-dimensional printed biodegradable external airway splints with native-like shape and mechanical properties for tracheomalacia treatment

Materials & Design, 2021
3D printed external airway splints derived from degradable biopolymers provide a promising way to treat tracheomalacia (TM). However, most of the splints cannot fully reproduce the lumen shapes and the mechanical properties of native tracheas.
