A brace and kit of braces with a method of use. The multi-digit brace includes first and second arcuate members coupled together by top and bottom bridge members. There are raised rails disposed about the circumference of the brace that form a band track within which an elastic band may be disposed to secure the brace to the fingers/toes of a hand/foot. The arcuate members are thinner near the bottom to allow for greater flex/bend of adjacent joints. The arcuate members are spaced from each other and form an hourglass shaped void therebetween. The arcuate members may form complete circles or may have gaps. The kit may include a plurality of braces and a plurality of bands/wraps/straps. The method includes installing a plurality of braces so that they face back-to-back towards a middle joint with thinner regions of each brace near the palmar side of the middle joint.

A Finger Splint for treating boutonniere deformities is provided. The Finger Splint has a dual axis support mechanism that allows full flexure and extension of the finger while pressure is applied to correct the deformity.

A hand support including a base component arranged for securing to at least a portion of a hand, an anchor element adjustably connected to the base component and arranged for grasping a thumb, and a counterforce device connecting to the base component and the anchor element. The counterforce device arranged to generate a counterforce in combination with or against the base component and anchor element. The hand support may be arranged to provide traction for an extended period to remedy complications of the hand and associated joints.

An improved finger splint includes an outer frame that partly surrounds an inner comfort sleeve. The outer frame is a substantially tubular shape with an oblong opening that cooperates with a patient's knuckle when the patient wears the splint around his finger and a pair of spine areas that extend along the underside of the patient's finger to encourage extension. The inner comfort sleeve includes a channel on its outer surface for receiving the outer frame, ridges along its inner surface, and holes and slots extending between its outer and inner surfaces to facilitate adjustment and breathability. Optionally, a fingertip guard can be removable attached to the inner sleeve with a series of protrusions that cooperate with the holes positioned around the inner sleeve. When assembled, the outer frame and inner comfort sleeve create a low profile, comfortable, and attractive and customizable splint.

A finger support assembly for treating symptoms of a finger injury and disease includes a tube that has a finger selectively extended therethrough. The tube is comprised of a rigid material to restrain the finger thereby treating symptoms of a finger injury. A pad is coupled to the tube to enhance comfort of the finger in the tube.

A finger brace is configured for disposition about a lengthwise portion of a human finger between a brace proximal and distal ends. When installed for bracing, the proximal end is anchored at least partially about the outer side of the finger at a location behind the PIP joint. The distal end includes a shank configured for coextension along a lengthwise portion of the outer side of the finger between the PIP joint and the finger nail. Situated between and connecting the support proximal and distal ends is a PIP-joint support that at least partially encircles and supports the PIP joint. In various configurations, a finger brace is incorporated into each glove finger of a sports glove to define a larger overall finger support system. The shanks may be articulated to promote finger bending while preventing rearward hyperextension.

A splint includes a band having a first end portion, a second end portion, and a middle portion extending between the end portions. The splint also includes at least one elongated member formed from a bendable material having at least a middle portion extending axially along the middle portion of the band, a first hook portion bent relative to a longitudinal axis of the band, and a second hook portion bent relative to the longitudinal axis of the band. The splint also includes at least one first perforation positioned in the band to receive the first hook portion and a second perforation in the band positioned to receive the second hook portion for securing the end portions of the band together forming at least one loop sized to support an injured limb and/or appendage of a patient.

A fixation device comprises a first clamping member having an adjustable clamping collar and a first curved support portion attached to the adjustable clamping collar. The first clamping member is adapted to receive a digit. The first curved support portion is adapted to support an inferior surface of a proximal phalanx of the digit. A distal member is adjustably attachable to the first clamping member. The distal member has a second curved support surface adapted to support an inferior surface of a distal phalanx of the digit and a curved distal end adapted to apply a compressive force in a proximal direction to a distal end of the distal phalanx.

A digit immobilizing splint is provided. The splint includes a first support portion operable in use to abut and support an underneath face of a digit on a first side of a joint of the digit, a second support portion operable in use to abut and support the underneath face of the digit on a second side of the joint, first and second fixing portions operable in use to respectively abut opposing side faces of the digit. The first and second fixing portions each extend between the first support portion and the second support portion. The first and second fixing portions are operable to be moved between a first, open, position wherein the first and second fixing portions do not abut the digit when the first and second support portions are abutting the digit, and a second, closed, position wherein the first and second fixing portions abut opposing sides of the digit such as to immobilize the digit and hold the splint in position around the digit.
