1 1- POSTERIOR ELBOW SPLINT
Common Name: (Posterior) elbow splint Objectives: 1) To support and rest elbow to relieve pain 2) To immobilize elbow to relieve pain 3) To block Elbow Extension Indications: 1) Rheumatoid Arthritis 2) Elbow surgeries Like Ulnar Nerve Transposition, Tendon Transplant, Nerve Repairs

2

3 2- ANTERIOR STATIC ELBOW SPLINT
Objectives: 1) To prevent or correct elbow flexion contractures 2) To block elbow Flexion Indications: 1) Burns 2) Ulnar Nerve Entrapment 3) Capsular Tightness 4) Elbow surgeries like: Triceps rupture Tumor resection Total Elbow Arthroplasty

4

5 3- ELBOW FLEXION HARNESS
Common Name: Elbow Flexion Splint It is static progressive in nature. Objectives: 1) To increase elbow flexion ROM 2) To maintain surgically obtain elbow range Indications: 1) Intra-articular fracture 2) Multiple trauma 3) Capsular tightness ) Supracondylar fracture 5) Radial head fracture

6

7 4- TENNIS ELBOW STRAP Objectives: 1) To reduce pain and inflammation
Indications: Inflammation of common Tendon origin

8 5- Spiral Thumb Abduction Supination Splint
Objectives: 1) To abduct thumb 2) To facilitate supination or pronation as required 3) To reduce tone of muscles 4) To assist weak muscles 5) To promote functional use of hand Indications: 1) Head injury 2) Multiple Sclerosis 3) Cerebral Palsy 4) Cerebrovascular accident

9

10 Wrist 1-COCKUP SPLINT It static in nature. Common Name:
Volar/Palmar Wrist 2) Volar Wrist Cock up 3) Wrist Immobilization 4) Drop Wrist Splint 5) Carpal Tunnel Splint 6) Work Splint 7) Ulnar Gutter Splint ) Radial Gutter Splint 7)Wrist Extension Immobilization Splint

11

12

13 Wrist Objectives: 1) To reduce Pain and Inflammation
2) To protect against joint damage 3) To promote hand function 4) To prevent or correct contractures 5) To provide base for Outriggers

14 Wrist Indications: Wrist tendons tendinitis/tenosynovitis
2) Joint Inflammation such as RA 3) Skin Graft 4) Unstable Wrist Joint 5) Wrist Sprain 6) Weak/Paralyzed Wrist Extensor 7) Congenital Hand Deformity 8) Volar style for flexion outriggers 9) Dorsal style for extension Outriggers

15 2-GAUNLET IMMOBILIZATION SPLINT
Common Name: Circumferential working Splint Objectives: 1) Greater wrist stability Indications: Evaluation tool before wrist arthrodesis Immobilize and stabilize a fracture of radius or base of Metacarpal.

16

17 3- DYNAMIC WRIST EXTENSION SPLINT
Objectives: 1) To Passively extend the wrist while allowing active wrist flexion 2)To prevent contracture of unopposed innervated wrist flexors Indications: 1) Weak or Paralyzed wrist Extensors (e.g.. Radial Nerve Palsy)

18

19 4- Static wrist Writing/Painting Orthosis:
Common Name: Wrist Splinting Objectives: To enable writing, drawing or painting by positioning wrist in functional extension and providing attachment of pen, pencil, eraser etc. Indications: 1) Spinal Cord Injuries at level C5 or above where wrist extensors paralyzed.

20

21 5- Radial thumb gutter splint:
Common Name: 1) De Quervain’s static splint 2) Wrist and thumb static splint 3) Long thumb CMC immobilization splint 4) Long opponens splint 5) Radial-thumb gutter splint 6) Wrist Thumb Orthosis

22 5- Radial thumb gutter splint:
Objectives: 1) To immobilize wrist, thumb CMC, MCP Joints, which are crossed by inflamed tendons 2) To rest and reduce inflammation Indications: 1)De Quervain’s tenosynovitis: Inflammation of tendon of abductor polices longus and extensor polices brevis in their synovial sheath

23

24 6-Scaphoids fracture splint
Objectives: 1) To immobilize the wrist, thumb, CMC and MCP Joints 2) To rest hand to reduce inflammation Indications: 1) De Quervain’s tenosynovitis 2) Instability of joints 3) Scaphoids fracture 4) Bennett’s fracture (fracture of base first MC joint)

25

26 7-Wrist stabilizing splint:
Objectives: 1) Immobilize wrist and Finger MCPs 2) To relieve pain and inflammation 3) To prevent and correct deformities 4) To correct joint instability Indications: 1) Joint Inflammation

27

28 8- RADIAL NERVE SPLINT: Common Name: MCP extension-assist splint, MCP Arthroplasty splints Objectives: To immobilize the wrist in functional position and passively extend MCPs to 0 degree while permitting full extension unrestricted motion Indications: When the extensors of the wrist, fingers MCPs and thumb is paralyzed or weak. 2) MCP arthroplasty-angle the wires to pull the MCPs radially

29

30 9- DYNAMIC MCP FLEXION SPLINT:
Objectives: 1) To gently stress the MCP collateral ligaments to promote desired growth and increase flexion range Indications: 1) Extension contracture of MCPs caused by shortened collateral ligaments

31

32 10-Resting hand splint: Objectives:
It is Static or Serial Static type of splint. Objectives: 1) To immobilize the wrist, MCPs, and IPs of Finger and thumb 2) To reduce or prevent contractures 3) Reduce pain and inflammation

33

34 11-Resting hand splint: 1) Scleroderma 2) Dupuytren’s release
3) Boxer’s fracture (Base of 5 MCP fracture) 4) Burns 5) Inflammatory joint disease 7) Crush injury

35

36 12-ANTISPASTICITY SPLINT:
Common Name: dorsal volar hand splint Objectives: 1) To immobilize wrist, MCP, IP 2) To prevent and reduce contracture 3) To reduce tone of hypertonic muscles Indications: 1) Hand Trauma or surgery 2) High tone Associated with:  Head Injury  Cerebral Palsy  Multiple Sclerosis  Cerebrovascular Accident
