IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The following information should be read prior to use of this device.
INTENDED USE
This finger spring fits from the head of the metacarpal to the distal interphalangeal joint. It is used to assist the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) into increased extension. It has a minimal effect on metacarpal phalangeal (MP) extension.
To determine splint length, measure involved finger as indicated in the diagram.
AA 2 1/4” 5.7 cm A 2 3/4” 7 cm B 3” 7.6 cm C 3 1/2” 8.9 cm D 4” 10 cm
DIRECTIONS FOR USE Fitting the Spring
1. Hold the spring at the
proximal and distal pads. Note: the proximal pad is on the curved wire.
2. Slide splint onto finger so the proximal pad rests over the volar aspect of the metacarpal head and the distal pad rests at the distal interphalangeal joint (DIP).
Adjust Spring Tension
1. To increase the force of
extension, spread the volar pads apart before placing on the finger.
2. To decrease the force of extension, pinch the volar pads together before placing on the finger.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Splint can be cleaned by hand washing with a non-abrasive detergent. Air dry before wearing.
