Knuckle bender splint to flex the metacarpophalangeal joints with outrigger to extend the distal joints.
Instruction :
Attach finger loops to openings on top of first segment. Reflect felt padding. Push rubber bands through opening and forward past front edge of first segment. Pass finger loop through the exposed loop in the rubber band and draw tight. Sizes medium, large and extra large have four attachment openings (one for each finger). Extra small and small have two openings requiring two finger loops per opening. Applying splint with rubber band attached only to hook on first segment (no force to flex joint) will facilitate proper positioning of splint on hand. With first segment and outrigger on top and facing forward slide hand into splint. Position palmar bar in arch of palm. Connect rubber bands to hook on hand section. Pass finger loops over outrigger and place on fingers. Splint is designed to dymanically flex M.P. joints and extend distal joints. Evaluate fit, function and instruct patient on use. Rubber bands can be added or subtracted, wires and bands can be carefully bent to modify fit and function. To remove splint first remove finger loops then remove rubber band from hand section.
Clean with mild soap and damp towel. Air dry completely before reapplying.
