Cascade Hand Therapy

Can't straighten your fingers? Sometimes, the "handwich" is the best answer, as much as I hate to say it!

History of multiple surgeries, multiple providers, less than ideal outcomes, recurrent contracture due to both scar and Dupuytren's.

Assessing the situation and needs of the patient is most important. The "handwich" is the easiest way for this individual to work on low load prolonged extension mobilization.

We make sure to pad them well for more comfort during use, it leads to better compliance.

It's been a Muenster orthosis party this summer; many wrist surgeries requiring immobilization limiting forearm rotation.

Although we prefer a radial forearm Muenster usually, here we had to do an ulnar Muenster to maintain extension of the RF and SF MCP joints too.

Custom splint is lookin' good, don't settle for less!
