Application and adjusting
The ready to adjust Chrisofix® orthoses have to be adjusted directly on the injured/diseased body part. The rough adjustment (bending) has to be performed on a non-injured limb of similar size. Fine adjustments, readjustments (e.g. after soft tissue swelling is reduced) can be made without removing the orthosis.
- Shape the orthosis on the hand, wrist and forearm.
- Set the wrist into the required position.
- Put the arm with the palmar side into the preshaped orthosis.
- Adjust the orthosis with gentle pressure to the hand and forearm.
- Replace the stiffener bar.
- Fasten the bandages over the fingers, hand and forearm.
To remove the orthosis, it is not necessary to open the strap on back of the hand; the hand can simply be pulled out from and later shifted back into the fixation. Frequent bending and stretching of the orthosis can damage its stability;these must be restricted to the necessary minimum.
