INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Open the two Velcro straps and insert your hand into the centre of the support with the thumb in the small ring aligned with the stay and the last phalanx free. Wrap the two Velcro straps around the wrist and thumb and fasten them to create light traction. Adjust the tension of the Velcro so that the thumb reaches the correct position and is supported firmly and comfortably. It must not be worn in contact with lesions or skin diseases unless on medical advice. Do not use in case of injuries that require complete immobilisation of the joint or surgery. In case of severe oedema, monitor the hand during use. Remove the stay if it is too tight and impedes circulation, and seek medical advice. To minimise any irritation or allergic reactions, regularly wash the area of skin in contact with the orthosis and avoid gels, creams, oils or similar. Contact a doctor if the problem persists. Before use, wash by hand in lukewarm water (max 30°C) with neutral soap and dry away from heat sources. Do not twist, wring or crush the medical device. Store in a clean, dry place away from light. Discard and replace when worn.

Orthosis with semi-rigid anatomical reinforcement to stabilise the trapeziometacarpal joint at the base of the thumb in case of inflammation, rhizarthrosis or mild to moderate trauma. It keeps the thumb at rest, aligned in its natural position, separated from the index finger, and preserves hand function. It prevents inflammation of the joint at the base of the thumb, reduces joint pain and limits the progression of rhizarthrosis. It allows partial immobilisation in case of mild or moderate trauma, in the acute post-operative phase or in the rehabilitation phase after a cast. Ambidextrous and available in one size. It fits any size and both thumbs, for men and women. Useful at any age.
