Key Benefits
The DeRoyal Acu-Spring Extension Splint offers essential benefits for patients and healthcare professionals. Its contoured, ergonomic design maintains consistent extension force, encouraging optimal finger alignment and aiding in the rehabilitation of flexion contractures. The adjustable tension enables therapists to customize the splints extension force, ensuring effective therapy tailored to each patients needs. Additionally, the Wire-Foam construction offers a comfortable, lightweight fit, enabling prolonged wear without discomfort. By facilitating the restoration of finger extension, this splint enhances patient outcomes and supports safe, controlled recovery.
Compatibility and Applications
This splint is compatible with other therapeutic devices typically used in hand rehabilitation, and it integrates easily into therapy regimens in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation clinics. Common applications include aiding patients with flexion contractures, joint stiffness, and reduced PIP joint mobility. The DeRoyal Finger Acu-Spring Extension Splint is suitable for a range of therapeutic settings, from clinical to home rehabilitation, and its X-Small size ensures a snug fit for smaller fingers, maximizing both comfort and efficacy.
Usage Guidelines
To use the splint, position it on the affected finger, ensuring the proximal pad rests comfortably over the metacarpal head and the distal pad aligns with the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint. Adjust the spring tension by gently bending the splint to increase or decrease extension force as needed. Use caution when adjusting to avoid excessive force, and follow the specific recommendations of a healthcare provider for optimal results. For more detailed instructions, refer to DeRoyals product guide or consult a therapist.
Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals
Manufactured in ISO-certified facilities, the DeRoyal Finger Acu-Spring Extension Splint meets high industry standards for quality and safety. While non-invasive products like splints may not require FDA or CE certification, DeRoyals adherence to quality control protocols ensures reliable performance in both clinical and personal use settings. These certifications underscore the products safety and effectiveness in patient care.
Comparison with Competitor Products
The DeRoyal 507AA Finger Acu-Spring Extension Splint offers distinct advantages over similar products due to its adjustable spring tension, Wire-Foam construction, and ergonomic design. Many competitor splints lack customizable extension force, limiting therapeutic flexibility. In contrast, DeRoyals design allows healthcare providers to fine-tune the splint for individualized treatment. The durable, comfortable materials also set it apart from more rigid, less comfortable alternatives, making it a preferred choice for professionals focused on long-term therapy and patient comfort.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
This splint is ideal for physical therapists, occupational therapists, and patients requiring support for PIP joint extension, particularly in cases involving flexion contractures or joint stiffness. Suitable for adults and children with smaller fingers, the X-Small size caters to those needing a precise, targeted fit. It is commonly used in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and by patients engaging in home therapy under professional guidance.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Store the splint in a dry, cool place to preserve its integrity, and clean it with mild soap and water as needed. Avoid using excessive force when adjusting the tension, as this may compromise its effectiveness. Follow institutional protocols or manufacturer recommendations for care and cleaning, and regularly inspect the splint for signs of wear. Adhering to these best practices will help maintain the splints effectiveness and longevity.
Regulatory and Safety Information
The DeRoyal Finger Acu-Spring Extension Splint is manufactured in accordance with ISO standards for medical-grade orthopedic devices, ensuring quality and reliability in clinical settings.
