Description

The Dynamic Cock-up Splint Dyna is typically made of lightweight, durable materials such as thermoplastic or metal. It consists of two main components:

1. Wrist Support: This part of the splint wraps around the wrist, providing stability and preventing excessive movement. It is usually adjustable to accommodate different wrist sizes and can be secured in place with straps, Velcro, or buckles.
2. Cock-up Bar: The splint incorporates a rigid bar that extends from the wrist support to the palm side of the hand. This bar keeps the wrist in a slightly extended or “cocked-up” position, which helps alleviate stress on the tendons and nerves in the wrist. The cock-up position is beneficial for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, as it can reduce pressure on the median nerve.

The Dynamic Cock-up Splint Dyna is typically prescribed by a healthcare professional and may require customization to fit the individual patient’s needs. Proper fitting and adjustment are crucial to ensure optimal support and comfort.
