The 3pp® Polycentric Hinged Right Hand Ulnar Deviation Splint is recommended for people with Rheumatoid Arthritis with ulnar deviation at the MP joints that can be corrected with mild to moderate force. The hinges allow the fingers to bend and straighten freely. This hand positioning splint fits over the top of the hand, leaving the palm free for gripping.
The Polycentric Hinged Ulnar Deviation Splint provides correction and motion control for persons with deviation of the fingers caused by Rheumatoid Arthritis. The patented polycentric hinges allow unrestricted MP flexing and extension to increase hand function. The patented design leaves the palm free to grip items and the side hinges allow users to freely open and close their hand. Each softly cushioned finger stay can be opened and closed to make this splint easy to put on and take off, even with swollen fingers. This hand positioning splint provides moderate control and is ideal for use following MP Arthroplasty.
