Alimed Dynamic Digit Finger Extensor Tube

Digit Finger Extensor Tube Features

• Fights edema
  • Unlike traditional spring and jack-like devices, tube fits snugly around the digit, delivering warmth to help relax tight tendinous structures and remodel scar tissue
  • Circumferential pressure aids in restricting fluid to assist in edema reduction
• Trim to length
  • The splint is mildly flexible, maintaining joint mobility and some functional use of the digit
  • Can be easily trimmed to length and contoured to fit the web space
• Easy application
  • Fabric interior makes the tube easy to slip on and adds durability
  • Rubber exterior provides a grip surface to aid in application as well as a functional grip surface during daily activities
• No pressure points
  • Tube may be worn for longer periods of time compared to other extension splints, due to its gentle force and distribution of pressure over a large area
• Clinically proven:
  • Clinical tests have demonstrated superior performance compared to other extension devices, even showing success in digits that were unsuccessfully treated by other clinical means

Note: This finger brace contains natural rubber latex which may cause allergic reactions
