Eligibility

Age
18 Years to No maximum

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients under the care of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology specialty at the Campina Grande Trauma Hospital, aged 18 years or older, regardless of gender, with unilateral and isolated zygomatic fractures classified as type III, IV, and V according to Knight and North's classification (1961), and treated by the same operator (surgeon) during the same surgical procedure

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Presence of neurological deficit after the trauma episode; history of surgery in the facial region prior to the current trauma; systemic disease without clinical control; continuous drug therapy for special patients, with coagulopathies, rheumatic and autoimmune diseases; chronic use of nicotine, alcohol or drugs; trans or postoperative complications; sensitivity/allergy to elastic tape or any component that makes up the personalized rigid device; deny participation in the study and do not sign the informed consent form

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to prove that both intervention methods are considered valid in controlling edema, believing that the prototyped device can be a new tool in controlling post-surgical edema in oral and maxillofacial surgeries, as well as elastic bandages. which are already widely used for this purpose.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to prove that both methods are considered valid in controlling trismus and pain, believing that the prototyped device can be a new tool in post-surgical morbidity in oral and maxillofacial surgeries, as well as elastic bandages.
