Summary

Description (Critical) This program is a step-by-step demonstration of a finger extension splint application. Materials, construction, and procedure are detailed; however, medical applications are not correlated and the importance of position and duration of immobilization of the PIP and MCP joints is not emphasized. This presentation merely describes methods of self-fabricating an extension, without addressing specific uses, indications, or contraindications. Although simple and clear, the presentation is paced slowly. This program is recommended with reservations for use by viewers familiar with medical indications for finger extension splints.
