Description
The wrist hand thumb orthosis provides proper support and immobilization of the wrist and thumb and allows unobstructed motion of the fingers.
Comprised of a foam-lined hypoallergenic linear polyethylene plastic with a padded dorsal tongue that enables it to provide both rigid cast-like protection and maximum comfort to the patient.
Significant advantage over casting, as it is highly adjustable, allowing it to properly compensate for edema.
Brace is radiolucent.
Easily customized utilizing a heat gun and scissors.
Each orthosis is provided with one pre-sewn double layer cotton stockinette.
