APPLICATION AND ADJUSTING
The ready to adjust Chrisofix® orthoses have to be adjusted directly on the in-jured/diseased body part. The rough adjustment (bending) has to be performed on a non-injured limb of similar size. Fine adjustments, readjustments (e.g. after soft tissue swelling is reduced) can be made without removing the orthesis.
- Shape the orthesis on the not injured wrist and forearm.
- Set the wrist into the required position.
- Put the arm with the dorsal side into the preshaped orthosis.
- Adjust the orthosis with gentle pressure to the wrist and forearm.
- Fasten the bandages on the wrist, forearm and between the thumb and index finger.
To remove the orthosis, it is not necessary to open the strap on back of the hand; the hand can simply be pulled out from and later shifted back into the fixation. Frequent bending and stretching of the orthosis can damage its stability;these must be restricted to the necessary minimum.
