Wrist Hand Orthoses Treatment Options
Treatment options for Wrist Hand Orthoses (WHO) cater to various conditions and are designed to offer maximum benefit through stability and support. The different types of WHO available at Comprehensive Prosthetics & Orthotics include immobilizers, compression sleeves, resting wrist hand orthoses, and thumb spica splints. Each of these orthoses serves a specific purpose in the healing process, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate level of care for their individual needs. Wrist Hand Orthoses treatment options include:
Immobilizer
An immobilizer orthosis supports damaged or weak wrists by preventing excessive flexion, rotation, and extension. This rigid brace is beneficial for treating carpal tunnel syndrome, sprains, post-operative recovery, and arthritis. Patients can prevent further damage by adjusting the strap for a secure fit and promoting structured healing.
Compression Sleeve
The compression sleeve orthosis compresses and supports the wrist, helping to relieve inflammation and pain while improving blood circulation to aid muscle recovery. Ideal for conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, muscle damage, wrist pain, wrist strain, and arthritis, this orthosis provides continuous support and facilitates faster healing.
Resting Wrist Orthoses
Resting wrist hand orthoses maintain the hand and wrist in a functional, neutral position. These soft braces prevent skin irritation and are commonly used to treat contractures, wrist drops, radial nerve injuries, and palsy. Keeping the wrist and hand stable, these orthoses help prevent further injury and support the healing process.
Thumb Spica Splint
The thumb spica splint immobilizes the thumb and wrist, holding the thumb in a fixed "glass-holding" position. This orthosis effectively treats Gamekeeper's thumb, De Quervain tenosynovitis, thumb sprains and strains, and other thumb-related injuries. The thumb spica splint allows patients to perform daily activities without compromising their recovery by providing stability and support.
