Pre-treatment
The custom MCP blocking orthosis was made of a 1.6-mm-thick thermoplastic material that extends from the palm over the MCP joint and includes a ring around the proximal phalanx. It is designed to block the MCP joint in flexion of 10°-20° while allowing full range of motion of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints.
Post-treatment
The RME orthosis was fabricated from 3.2-mm-thick thermoplastic material with the affected finger positioned at an extension of approximately 10°-20° relative to the adjacent fingers.
