What is Understanding Skin Traction Techniques about?

Skin traction involves applying Velcro splints, bandages, or adhesive tapes to the skin below a fracture and attaching weights to stabilize the broken bone. Less than 4.5 pounds of weight is used to avoid damaging skin or tissues while positioning the limb with a pulley system. Skin traction immobilizes fractures before surgery or repair of soft tissues like muscles and tendons.
