Treatments by Oval-8

• Mallet Finger
  - Holds the DIPJ in extension or slight hyperextension
  - Adjust with heat if slight hyperextension is desired 
• Trigger Finger
  - Blocks finger triggering by limited MP or IPJ flexion
  - Ideal as a conservative -treatment or following injection
• Trigger Thumb
  - Blocks thumb triggering at the DIPJ or MPJ
  - Ideal as a conservative treatment or following injection
• Swan Neck (Hyperextension) Deformity
  - Stops PIPJ hyperextension
  - Improves DIPJ control
• Boutonniere Deformity
  - Holds the PIPJ in neutral extension
  - Ideal as a "retainer" after dynamic splinting to solidify gains in ROM
• Lateral Deviated Fingers
  - Reduces DIPJ and PIPJ deviation caused by injury or the buildup of arthritic nodules
  - Pressure can be applied ulnarly or radially to reduce deviation
• Fractures
  - Holds minor non-displaced fractures stable using two splints
  - Interlock a larger-sized splint with a smaller-sized splint to immobilize a joint
