Na, from capeline,a woman's ha dage; French). Or capitalis reflexa, capeline de la tete, deligatio, species 8.

A reflex bandage. It is a double headed roller, about twenty-four feet long, and the breadth of four inches, sometimes narrower; the middle is fixed to the occiput, and, after two or three circular rounds, the rollers intersect each other upon the forehead and put; then one roller being reflected over the vertex or sagittal suture to the forehead, the other is continued in a circular tract; they cross each other upon the head, after which crossing the first head is carried back obliquely towards the occiput, and reflected by the side of the other; the last is continued in a circular direction, but the first is brought again over the sagittal su-ture, backward and forward, and so continued till the whole head is covered. It must be applied smooth and even upon the part which it surrounds, or on which it reflects. It is used in the hydrocephalus, but is not of any advantage.
