摘要：
A fully conformable, full contact orthopedic cast is shown for an affected area of a patient such as a limb or appendage requiring immobilization. A method for installing the cast on a patient is also shown. The cast includes an initially flexible bladder which is filled with a curable compound. The bladder may be conformably installed on the limb to be immobilized. Once the bladder is conformed to the limb, the curable compound is cured, as by the use of LED light, or UV-irradiation. The cast is easy to remove simply by unzipping a cross-linked closure strip, eliminating the need to use a saw to remove the cast.
