Application and adjusting
The ready to adjust Chrisofix® splints/orthoses have to be adjusted directly on the injured/diseased body part. The rough adjustment (bending) has to be performed on a non-injured finger. Fine adjustments, readjustments (e.g. after soft tissue swelling is reduced) can be made without removing the splint/orthosis.
The fingertip to be splinted must be placed into the splint/orthosis. The latter must be carefully adjusted to the fingertip with gentle pressure. The splint/orthosis can be fixed with the Velcro fasteners supplied with it. Frequent bending and stretching of the splint/orthosis can damage its stability; these must be restricted to the necessary minimum.
