Peds: Thumb-Abduction Orthoses

Thumb Abduction & Opposition

Benik's W-220 Series Thumb Abduction and Opposition Supports are simple thumb sleeves with wrist straps that provide dynamic support to the thumb CMC and MP joints.

Improved functional use of the hand is possible by stabilizing, but not fully immobilizing the CMC joint, while allowing flexion of the thumb IP joint for tip to tip and tripod pinch.

Possible indications for either style include CMC dysfunction, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, low median nerve injury and some UCL/RCL injuries.

The addition of thermoplastic is available to provide more control, such as a thumb web space.

Specify Left or Right.
