The Dressing and Bandage.
If the Apophysis Spinosa were fractur'd, it wou'd be requisite to apply to each side of it a small long Bolster, which is to be cover'd with a Paste-board of the same Figure with the Bolster; another Bolster lying upon each Paste-board. The Bandage is to be made with a Napkin sustain'd by its Scapulary; or else the Quadriga may be prepar'd, according to the manner we have already describ'd in the Fracture of the Sternum.

Of the Fracture of the Os Sacrum.
It is reduc'd as the other Vertebra's; but its Dressing and Bandage are made with the T perforated at the Anus, or else with the H or double T. It is made with a Band two Fingers broad, and long enough to encompass the Body above the Hips; so that to the middle of this Band is fasten'd another Band of the same breadth, and of a sufficient length to pass over the Dressing of the Os Sacrum, as also between the Thighs, to be join'd in the fore-part to the first Cincture. The double T is made by fastening two Bands at a Finger's breadth distance one from another, to the Band which ought to be roll'd about the Body; and this sort of Bandage is to be supported with a Scapulary.
