Product Highlights
Product Description
AliMed® Palm Guard™ Splint features a soft webbing that contours to the distortions and angulations resulting from severe finger flexion contractures to help reduce the risk of skin maceration and punctures caused by dangling nails or involuntary motion. Protects patients who cannot be splinted because of severe and unyielding contractures. Made from a laminate of tough, smooth-skinned AliMed AliPlast™*, a dense waterproof foam, and synthetic fleece. The fleece rests against the palmar tissue to cushion and aerate while the AliPlast faces outward and resists fingernail puncture and cushions the excessive pressure on the fingertips. Double over and apply flat for palmar protection for extreme contracture or roll into a cone-like shape to lift and hold fingers away from the palm. Machine-washable. One size, may be trimmed with scissors to fit very small hands. Pack of 3. Available in Left or Right, not interchangeable.
*AliPlast is AliMed's own cross-linked polyethylene foam used in professional orthotics and available only through AliMed.
