title: "Krammer splint technique" for immediate measuring of intramedullary nails.
abstract: We illustrate a simple and quick method of measuring the length of the intramedullary nail. The method utilizes the intervals between the metal ranks of the Krammer splint, and it has proved especially useful in the care of multitrauma victims.
