  2. Adhesive bandage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive_bandage

    The adhesive sheet is usually a woven fabric, plastic (PVC, polyethylene or polyurethane), or latex strip. It may or may not be waterproof; if it is airtight, the bandage is an occlusive dressing. The adhesive is commonly an acrylate, including methacrylates and epoxy diacrylates (which are also known as vinyl resins). [2]

  3. Orthopedic cast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthopedic_cast

    The cast restricts ankle movement while allowing knee mobility. In some cases, a toe plate is added to a short leg cast to provide additional protection for toe injuries or fractures. The toe plate is an extension of the cast that covers the toes, shielding them from external forces and reducing the risk of further injury during recovery.

    A sticker is a type of label: a piece of printed paper, plastic, vinyl, or other material with temporary or permanent pressure sensitive adhesive on one side. It can be used for decoration or for functional purposes, depending on the situation. Stickers can come in many different shapes and sizes and also vary widely in color and design.

  5. Elastic bandage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_bandage

    Elastic bandage. An elastic bandage is a "stretchable bandage used to create localized pressure". [1] Elastic bandages are commonly used to treat muscle sprains and strains by reducing the flow of blood to a particular area by the application of even stable pressure which can restrict swelling at the place of injury.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_closure_strip

    Reinforced skin closures: These are sterile skin closure strips that are made of a porous, non-woven backing coated with a pressure-sensitive, hypoallergenic adhesive and reinforced with polyester filaments for added strength. They provide general wound support for increased tensile strength and finer wound edge approximation.

  9. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

    Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).
