OCL splint - mtmom23

Posted: May 21, 2010

Is there an expansion for this type of splint? Cannot find anything other than reference to it being a plaster type splint. TIA.

OCL - MT

My Stedman's Orthopaedic Words shows "Orthopaedic Casting Lab." "OCL volar splint." The expansion looks to me to be a manufacturing company or distributor, based on the initial capitalization. Doubt you would have to expand this anywhere in a report.
