Anti-Boutonniere Splint
The DS Anti-Boutonniere Splint can be used on both the PIP and the DIP joints of all the fingers including the IP joint of the thumb.
It is used to limit the flexion of each of these joints or to keep them in an extended position.
It is very effective for Arthritic, Boutonniere conditions or for Mallet finger conditions and can hold the finger in different positions depending on how tight you want the splint to be worn. It can be used to slow down or even sometimes stop the progression of deviation from Arthritis.
This splint is adjustable and can allow for some flexion by squeezing the rings together. This will loosen the splint or you can make the splint tighter by spreading the rings further apart.
Additional Options:
Lateral Supports—can be added to one side or to both sides of the splint to protect the joint.
