Clinical Application
Provides stable, reproducible positioning and immobilization of the adult hand and wrist during operative and perioperative care. Commonly used in elective hand surgery, trauma fixation, tendon repair, and procedures performed under fluoroscopic guidance to maintain alignment and reduce motion artifact. The lead-containing core also affords localized radiographic attenuation useful for operator and field protection when employed according to facility radiation-safety protocols.
Design & Configuration
The contoured adult form supports the palmar and dorsal surfaces while preserving surgical access to digits and wrist. A malleable internal support allows fine contouring to patient anatomy for secure positioning without excessive bulk. The compact footprint keeps the operative field accessible while maintaining predictable hand orientation, which aids exposure, fixation accuracy, and intraoperative imaging.
