chondrodystrophoid, well muscled) does not permit e\ufb00 ective sling application \u25a0 Concurrent hip fractures or pre-existing disease (e.g. hip dysplasia) \u25a0 Concurrent injuries such as fractures or open wounds Equipment \u25a0 Padded bandage material or cast padding \u25a0 Conforming gauze bandage \u25a0 Adhesive outer protective bandage material (e.g. Elastoplast) Patient preparation and positioning \u25a0 General anaesthesia is required for closed reduction of hip luxation and is preferred for Ehmer sling application.<\/p>\n

\u25a0 The patient should be positioned in lateral recumbency with the a\ufb00 ected limb uppermost. \u25a0 At the beginning of the procedure the pelvic limb should be held in a gently \ufb02 exed position. Technique Con\ufb01 rm successful hip joint reduction by radiography and check range of motion and stability of the hip joint. Con\ufb01 rm that conservative management of hip luxation is appropriate (see Hip luxation \u2013 closed reduction). Apply padded bandage material around the metatarsal region to lightly pad this area.<\/p>\n

Secure the padded bandage material around the metatarsal region with conforming gauze bandage. It is important to pass the conforming gauze bandage from lateral to medial around the dorsal aspect of the metatarsus and from medial to lateral around the plantar aspect of the metatarsus. VetBooks.ir Procedures in Small Animal Practice Completely \ufb02 ex the whole limb. Pass the conforming gauze bandage from the lateral aspect of the metatarsus across the cranial aspect of the mid-tibia, to the medial aspects of the mid-tibia and mid-femur.<\/p>\n

Pass the bandage over the cranial aspect of the mid-femur to the lateral aspect of the mid-femur. Pass the bandage caudal to the sti\ufb02 e to the medial aspects of the distal tibia and proximal metatarsal region, before returning to the plantar aspect of the metatarsus. The result should be a \ufb01 gure-of- eight bandage.<\/p>\n

Apply a few more layers of conforming gauze bandage to secure the pelvic limb in the \ufb02 exed position. 10 Apply an adhesive protective bandage material over the conforming bandage to overhang the edge of the conforming gauze to secure the bandage to the skin\/fur. Alternative techniques \u25a0 Ehmer slings are prone to slipping, especially over the cranial aspect of the sti\ufb02 e. These slings can be made using an elastic adhesive bandage alone, with some metatarsal padding.<\/p>\n

This decreases slipping but the sling is more di\ufb03 cult to remove, and skin irritation is more likely. \u25a0 The sling can also be secured around the abdomen by extending the bandage from the plantarolateral aspect of the metatarsus, lateral to the \ufb02 exed pelvic limb and over the dorsal aspect of the body, before wrapping it around the abdomen.<\/p>\n
