| Bryant's traction | Traction upon the lower limb placed vertically, employed especially in fractures of the femur in children. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Bryant | Sir Thomas, English surgeon, 1828-1914. See: Bryant's sign, Bryant's traction, Bryant's triangle. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| Bryant's sign | <clinical sign> In dislocation of the shoulder, an abnormal position of axillary folds occurs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bryant's triangle | In fracture of the neck of the femur to determine upward displacement of the trochanter, lines are drawn on the body to form a triangle: line a is drawn around the body at the level of the anterior superior iliac spines; line b, perpendicular to line a, is drawn to the great trochanter of the femur; line c is drawn from the trochanter to the iliac spine; upward displacement is measured along line b. Synonym: iliofemoral triangle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axis traction | Rarely used procedure to apply traction upon the foetal head in the line of the birth canal by means of axis traction forceps. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axis-traction forceps | Obstetrical forceps provided with a second handle so attached that traction can be made in the line in which the head must move in the axis of the pelvis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Buck's traction | Apparatus for applying longitudinal skin traction on the leg through contact between the skin and adhesive tape; friction between the tape and skin permits application of force, which is applied through a cord over a pulley, suspending a weight; elevation of the foot of the bed allows the body to act as a counterweight. Synonym: Buck's traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular traction | <dentistry> A pulling force developed by using elastic or wire ligatures and interdental wiring or splints, or both. Synonym: intermaxillary traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| visceral traction reflex | Laryngeal spasm precipitated during an operation by traction on the stomach, gallbladder, or appendiceal mesentery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vitreoretinal traction syndrome | <syndrome> Traction on the internal limiting membrane of the retina by adherent vitreous fibrils in vitreous humor detachment. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Russell traction | An improvement of Buck's extension that permits the resultant vector of the applied traction force to be changed, for fractures of the femur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| halo traction | Application of skeletal traction to the head by means of a halo device. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sayre's suspension traction | Spinal traction obtained by vertical suspension of the patient by means of a head halter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| skeletal traction | Traction pull on a bone structure mediated through pin or wire inserted into the bone to reduce a fracture of long bones. Synonym: skeletal extension. (05 Mar 2000) |
| skin traction | Traction on an extremity by means of adhesive tape or other types of strapping applied to the limb. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intermaxillary traction | <dentistry> A pulling force developed by using elastic or wire ligatures and interdental wiring or splints, or both. Synonym: intermaxillary traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
