To establish realistic outcomes and formulate workable nursing care plans for the patient in a cast brace, the nurse must understand the concept of cast bracing, the patient's response to the injury and previous treatee is often the most persistent problem, and vigilant observations along with supportive care may prevent the skin from breaking down and the patient from becoming discouraged. Since the purpose of cast brace treatment is to hasten healing, maintain knee and hip joint function, and shorten the rehabilitation period, the smooth progression of activity and prevention of problems due to the cast brace are priorities.
