Splinting and Bracing

Splints have an important role in the management of disease and injury of the hand.

There are several basic reasons for splinting a hand or wrist:

To protect injured or repaired structures
To prevent deformity
To decrease pain
To enhance function
To correct deformity
To increase mobility
