Self-applied Constricting Bands
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 January 2018
Extract
Interesting accounts of injuries resulting from self-applied constricting bands have been given by Thurston (1963, 1967), Little (1965), Cutler (1967), Turney (1967) and Glew (1967). Callum (1967), Noott (1967) and Webb (1968) have reported injuries in babies where the band was presumably not self-applied. Cohen (1967) noted lesions in mental defectives produced by self-applied elastic bands round the teeth.
