3pp Radial Hinged Ulnar Deviation Left Hand Splint

The 3pp® Radial Hinged Ulnar Deviation Left Hand Splint provides comfortable support to help improve the alignment of strongly deviated fingers for users with Rheumatoid Arthritis. This splint was designed by a hand specialist to improve hand function in patients with severe ulnar deviation of the fingers.

The 3pp Radial Hinged Ulnar Deviation Splint has soft finger straps that allow each finger to be individually aligned for maximum support and comfort. This hand positioning splint is made of thin molded Kydex plastic and lined in soft felt for added comfort. A bendable stay contours around the palm for added stability while leaving the palm free for function. While the Radial Hinged Ulnar Deviation will hold the fingers straighter when being worn, it is unlikely that it will correct the deviation once it is removed. While there is no research that shows splints can stop the progression of deviation, it has been shown that a properly fit splint can help improve hand function. If your fingers are quite tight but still movable at your large knuckles, the Radial Hinged Ulnar Deviation Splint is more likely to be effective than the lighter weight Polycentric Hinged Ulnar Deviation Splint.

To clean the splint, rinse in cool soapy water and rinse well with clear water. Pat felt lining dry and allow to air dry thoroughly. The strap can be removed and hand washed with soap and water, and allowed to air dry. Additional straps are available for purchase.

Because of the nature of Rheumatoid Arthritis and the variations in the deformities it causes, we recommend discussing this splint with your health care provider before purchasing. Your doctor or therapist can assist in properly fitting and adjusting the splint if needed. To determine the size needed, lay hand flat and measure width across the hand from the 2nd to 5th MP (large knuckles). Small fits 3/4 inch to 3 inches, Medium fits 3 to 3-3/8 inches, Large fits 3-3/8 to 3-5/8 inches. Non-returnable hygiene item.
