Assists in applying short leg casts.
Designed to assist in applying short leg casts, the adjustable height permits optimal leg position for the seated patient and helps insure the application of a cast with the foot/ankle at 90 degrees to the leg. The foot is placed on the tongue of the stand. Stockinette is pulled over the foot and tongue. Cast padding and plaster/fiberglass is used in a routine fashion. The cast stand is slipped forward disengaging the foot after the cast has hardened.
