Erfecen Thermal Nasal Splint

The Erfecen thermal nasal splint is a thermoplastic external nasal splint that softens when warmed and sets in the exact shape of the patient’s nose. It supports the nasal bones and cartilage after rhinoplasty, septorhinoplasty and nasal fracture reduction, while its perforated surface lets the skin breathe.

What Is a Thermal Nasal Splint?

A thermal nasal splint is made from a thermoplastic sheet that becomes soft and mouldable when heated, usually in warm water. The surgeon places the softened sheet over the nose and shapes it by hand. As it cools, it hardens into a custom-fitted shell that holds the new nasal shape and protects it during healing.

Features of the Erfecen Thermal Nasal Splint

• Thermoplastic material: softens with heat and moulds to each nose.
• Perforated surface: breathable on the skin for greater comfort.
• Rigid once set: firm, protective support for the nasal bones.
• Alcohol swab included: clean and degrease the skin before application.
• Individually packed: one splint per pack for hygienic use.
• Three colours: red, blue and skin tone [confirm options].

Why Choose a Thermal Nasal Splint?

Every nose is different. A thermal nasal splint gives a truly custom fit because it is moulded directly on the patient, with no gaps or pressure points. The result is even support, better control of swelling and a comfortable splint that stays in place. The perforations reduce heat and moisture under the splint, which helps protect the skin.

Comfort for the Patient

A splint that fits well is a splint the patient forgets about. Because the thermoplastic sheet takes the exact shape of the nose, there are no hard edges pressing on the skin, and the perforations keep the area cooler and drier. The coloured options also let clinics offer patients a choice, which many find reassuring during recovery.

Clinical Uses

It is suitable for:

• Rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty
• Closed reduction of nasal bone fractures
• Revision rhinoplasty
• Protection of the nose after nasal trauma

How to Use the Thermal Nasal Splint

1. Clean the skin with the enclosed alcohol swab and let it dry.
2. Soften the thermal nasal splint in warm water according to the instructions for use.
3. Dry the surface and check that it is at a comfortable temperature before placing it on the skin.
4. Mould the splint over the nose and hold it until it sets.
5. Remove the splint as directed by the surgeon.

Storage and Disposal

Store the splints in their original packs in a cool, dry place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight, which could soften the material. Each thermal nasal splint is intended for a single patient. Dispose of used splints in accordance with local regulations.
