SKU: Digit Extensor Tube Splint Category:

Description

Tube shaped splint with rubber spring on the volar surface helps extend finger and

mobilize stiff joints without putting pressure over the PIP joint. The spring lifts the finger outward and

upward. The spring also helps prevent the splint from migrating distally. Use to treat any degree of flexion

contractures. Tube is flexible for limited functionality of finger. The outer rubber surface provides grip

surface while using finger. Distal end of splint can be trimmed back to monitor finger tip for circulatory

problems. Ideal for a patient lacking sensation in the finger because it does not provide pressure over POP

joint. Circumferential design of splint helps reduce edema. If the finger feels uncomfortably warm, simply

make a slit in the tube over the PIP joint for ventilation.
Not to be used over open wound or stitches!

To determine size, measure circumference of PIP joint. A finger with severe PIP
joint flexion contracture may require a larger size than indicated by measuring.
