 Our surgeon wants me to source casting felt and I wondered if anyone on here might use it or/and know where I can purchase it from please? 
 
 Also what do you use to cover legs during surgery that are sterile?

&lt;p&gt;To cover legs, we use vet-wrap type bandages which have been gas sterilised.&amp;nbsp; If you don&amp;#39;t have a gas steriliser, you could just wrap a sterile drape around the limb.&amp;nbsp; We use &amp;#39;Ioban&amp;#39; drapes too - very useful for wrapping around hooves. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: question for equine nurses in practice</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/146624?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 06 Oct 2013 19:55:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:7a91e10f-0308-4833-be32-6248500dfe19</guid><dc:creator>Sal the 1st</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I am not in large animal any more but I seem to remember getting it from millpledge in the past - hope that is of use&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
