MEDICAL FIXING MATERIAL AND MEDICAL FIXTURE

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a medical fixing material and a medical fixture which have both the flexibility required to fit the shape of the affected area of a bone fracture and the strength required to protect the affected area, have excellent thermal conductivity such that heat in the affected area can be sufficiently dissipated, provide excellent convenience which allows for prompt treatment, and have an excellent ability to reconform according to the degree of recovery of the affected area. The medical fixture (10) is made from the medical fixing material (11)which has a thermal conductivity of 0.170 W/m*K or higher at 20 DEG C and contains at least a thermoplastic resin and thermally conductive powder having a thermal conductivity higher than that of saidthermoplastic resin alone. This medical fixture is capable of efficiently dissipating heat from the affected area, and thus accelerating recovery of the affected area. When immersed in hot water fora certain period of time, t
