[Active movement therapy after flexor tendon suture using a new dynamic control splint].
The authors constructed a new dynamic guiding splint assisting the active mobilisation after flexor tendon repair distal to the wrist. In these cases, the "inverse" wrist position seems to be the best position for mobilisation. This means that finger flexion should be carried out during wrist extension, and finger extension during wrist flexion. The splint guides and co-ordinates the movements of the wrist and the fingers, and it limits the free usage of the hand.
