Static progressive splint for composite flexion.
Frequently when one sustains an injury to a digit, multiple soft tissue structures can be involved. As a result, the MCP, PIP, and DIP joints can be affected, thus limiting the ability to fully flex the finger. As hand therapists, one of our primary goals is to improve functional grasp/grip. These authors have designed a single-digit, composite flexion splint to help achieve this goal.
