Definition & Overview
A protective cushioning wrap applied over the skin before wet Plaster of Paris (POP) bandage wrapping.
Detailed clinical description
POP Cast Padding serves as an essential thermal and mechanical barrier. When Plaster of Paris sets, it undergoes an exothermic reaction producing heat; quality cast padding shields the patient's delicate skin while absorbing pressure spikes and allowing natural perspiration escape.
Clinical applications
- Thermal insulation during POP setting exotherm
- Pressure redistribution over bony landmarks
- Easy, safe cast removal with oscillating cast saws without skin contact
