  • Directions to Use:
    - Write patients last name on splint cover and open Velcro straps.
    - After Passive Range of Motion (PROM) to allow maximum wrist and finger extension, place Orthosis along the inside flexor surface of the arm and hand.
    - Adjust the wrist to the degree of flexion/extension desired. It can be adjusted and readjusted to different degrees of extension or flexion of the wrist as desired. Unzip the cover to expose the goniometer mechanism. Loosen screw with Allen wrench provided (screw loosens by turning counterclockwise). One tab limits flexion and one tab limits the degree of extension allowed. As the patient flexes wrist, the moderate spring load will push the extremity to the set degree of extension. The approximate number of degrees can be read on the Goniometer. Note: the point of contact between the pin and the tab, most accurately reflects the degree of angulation (not the center of the tab). Each notch represents 30°. When readjusting the range of motion permitted, it is preferred to keep one tab fixed in position (usually at the 0° mark). Progress in therapy is read off as changes in position of the edges of the tab along the Goniometer marks.
    - The ComfyTM Spring Loaded Goniometer Finger Extender Orthosis is easily adjusted and re-adjusted to any desired angle and maintains its shape. To lock the orthosis in a fixed position, merely place the tabs on both sides of the pin and tighten the screw.
    - Once the desired angulation for the wrist and finger is achieved, recluse the zipper, wrap the straps around the wrist and finger and secure with Velcro. It is suggested that the therapist maintain a two-finger space under the straps to prevent excessive pressure areas on the patients skin.
    - Check ComfyTM Spring Loaded Goniometer Finger Extender Orthosis every 15 minutes initially, then increase intervals to every two hours for pressure areas, edema or skin irritation. If signs of redness, increased swelling or pain appear then discontinue use and notify a physician. Note: ComfyTM Spring-Loaded Goniometer Finger Extender Orthosis requires a physician prescription and should be applied and supervised by a trained healthcare professional. If any of the metal frames becomes exposed, signs of redness, swelling or pain appear discontinue use and notify physician.
