Résumé
The treatment of nasal bone fractures involves closed reduction, in which the reduction position is generally evaluated indirectly by visual examination and palpation. While more direct evaluation methods using ultrasonography can improve treatment outcomes, ultrasonography of the nasal bones requires acoustic coupling materials to hold the entire ultrasonography probe in close contact with the nose. We report the use of the Glove Finger Pad, a homemade acoustic coupling material made from a medical glove. The Glove Finger Pad is easy to prepare and use and produces good images. We believe that the Glove Finger Pad will further enhance the usefulness of ultrasonography for the treatment of nasal fractures.
