Problems solved by technology

[0003] Problems arise in applying the cast to hold the palm, fingers and forearm in the fixed positions described above due to the fact that it takes some time for the cast to set
During this time, deviations from this optimal fixed position may occur
Also, shaping the cast properly requires some experience on the part of the person applying the cast
When the palm and fingers are not held in an optimal relative position, this can lead to a longer recovery period, or even necessitate (restorative) surgery
This can be avoided by reapplying the cast to still try to achieve an optimal fixation position, but history repeats itself and the problem recurs
There is obviously an additional cost to this extra work

Embodiment Construction

[0036] Figure 1a Shows a side view of an auxiliary device 1 for the relative positioning of the hand's palm, fingers and wrist, as is necessary during the application of a cast and for the setting of the cast in the event of an injury such as a metacarpal fracture like that. Figure 1b and figure 2 Two variants of the auxiliary device are shown. By the reference symbol H ( figure 2 ) represents a hand with a palm P and fingers F. The wrist is indicated by the reference sign W. The auxiliary device 1 has a first support surface 2 designated hereinafter as the palm rest surface, which plays the role of the palm P on which the hand H rests, and the auxiliary device has a first support surface 2 designated hereinafter as the finger support surface. The second support surface 3 of the second support surface plays the role of placing the fingers F of the hand H. In this example, before the hand H is placed against the auxiliary device 1 , the hand H is provided with a plaste...

Abstract

An aid for relative positioning of a palm of hand, associated fingers and forearm, which aid comprises a palm support face for laying against it an inner side of the palm, and a finger support face for laying against it the fingers at least from a point near the metacarpophalangeal joints to a point near the proximal interphalangeal joints.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical aid. Background technique [0002] In the case of hand injuries such as metacarpal fractures, which require immobilization of the palm, fingers and forearm of the hand, e.g. with a plaster of paris, the consequences of the position at which the immobilization is applied should be taken into account in order to achieve the best results. Optimum medical outcomes without delaying the duration of recovery. Specifically, the palm, fingers and forearm are fixed relative to each other such that the palm is bent backward relative to the forearm and the fingers in the extended state are positioned transversely to the palm. Thus, the muscles and tendons that run from the forearm through the palm into the fingers are fixed in a position of maximum stretch. Shortening of muscles and / or tendons during prolonged immobilization of the palm, fingers, and forearm. By implementing immobilization in the manner described above, the ef...
