Ideal for joint contractors, nerve damage and brachial plexus avulsions to prevent carpal contracture during the healing period, joint sprains, metacarpal fractures, or in conditions where one would like to immobilise the carpal joint.
The Thermoflipper is ideal for joint contractors, nerve damage and brachial plexus avulsions to prevent carpal contracture during the healing period, joint sprains, metacarpal fractures, or in conditions where one would like to immobilise the carpal joint.
Warm water heats and softens the flipper allowing it to be moulded to best fit your pets’ leg. As it cools it hardens and sets.
The product is remouldable allowing one to do serial splinting to reduce carpal contracture. I would recommend remolding every 3-5 days together with passive range of motion of the joint 6 x daily.
