Be sure to remove any wrinkles to avoid adding additional pressure areas

[@cmcer1995]

I understand that you do not wrap the boot dressing back down when applying it.

nice. very educational.thanks for sharing

[@erinjacobs5623]

For what types of patients do you use a cast with a toe plate or foot plate? if you have a cast shoe could you avoid application of a foot or toe plate? Would you be able to demonstrate a cast application with a toe plate? Thanks for taking the time to post these very educational videos. Appreciate the effort. Thanks

What is the overlap for?

[@leorabyrd5926]

the over lap allows for swelling, so it has some give.

If the Pt has swelling, the pleats allow for swelling without causing problems …

I really like the “back n forth”wrapping. I’m applying a UNNA this week to one of my Pts ( I’m a nurse) and I’m always looking to improve technique! Thx!

I apply orthoglass at our clinic. I would LOVE cast padding. I'm ordering it.
