Limitations:

1. Restricts Mobility:

1. • Limits forearm and wrist movement, which may hinder certain activities.

2. Not Suitable for Complex Fractures:

1. • Severe or displaced fractures may require surgical intervention or more advanced immobilization (e.g., a cast).

3. Proper Fitting Required:

1. • An improperly fitted splint can cause discomfort, pressure sores, or reduced effectiveness.

How to Use:

1. Position the Splint:

1. • Place the splint along the underside (palmar side) or top (dorsal side) of the forearm, depending on the injury and condition.

2. Secure the Straps:

1. • Fasten the straps snugly around the forearm and wrist, starting from the distal (hand) end and working upward.

3. Ensure Proper Alignment:

1. • Check that the forearm and wrist are properly aligned and supported in the neutral position.

1. Volar Splint:

1. • Positioned on the underside (palmar side) of the forearm to support the wrist and forearm.

2. Dorsal Splint:

1. • Placed on the back (dorsal side) of the forearm for conditions requiring minimal palmar pressure.

3. Sugar-Tong Splint:

1. • Wraps around the forearm and elbow, providing additional stability for both the forearm and wrist.

Ideal For:

• Individuals recovering from fractures or soft tissue injuries in the forearm or wrist.
