SPLINT IN MYMIND SKIN

When figuring sizes, it is important to use a centimeter tape measure. Older children and adults need adult sizes. Pediatric sizes are suitable for children from about 3 months to 6-10 years. Neonatal sizes are suitable for very small or prematurely born infants. If a sizing kit is unavailable, follow the directions above. To assure the best fit, use of a sizing kit is recommended. If ordering offline, the catalog number for the above example would be P5-L (left hand) or P5-R (right hand). Note splint size and left or right hand, as this is required when ordering. Refer to the neonatal chart for neonatal sizing.

Neonatal Size Chart → Use only Measurement A.

To view sizing charts click the links below. If Neonatal use only Measurement A an Neonatal Sizing and refer to the neonatal chart for neonatal sizing.Įxample:If Measurement A = 5.2 centimeters and Measurement B = 6.0 centimeters, then splint size = P5 The square should fall within a bold area corresponding to the correct size. On the appropriate chart (see links below), find the the square where Measurement A and Measurement B meet. Measure from the distal thumb crease to the bottom of the web space. Measurement F (only used for custom splints) Measure to the 1/10th of a centimeter the distance on the palm from the distal thumb joint to the center of the wrist crease. Measure to the 1/10th of a centimeter the circumference of the far or distal thumb joint. Use A and B measurements to determine which size splint you should order.

Custom options include custom sizing, longer strapping, lengthened or shortened thumb, and plastic web stay.

The smooth side nylon of the thumb splint is worn against the skin and the outer looped nylon fabric is receptive to hook tape, thus allowing adaptability when attaching the strapping.

Made from 1.5 mm thick, washable, nylon-covered neoprene.

Minimal palmar coverage allows the hand to function normally - to feel and manipulate objects.

Dynamic, streamlined design promotes thumb opposition during grasp.
