In this video we are clarifying some key differences between splint designs and purposes for different conditions of the thumb. We will be discussing splinting options for DeQuervain's Tenosynovitis, Skier's Thumb, Gamekeeper's Thumb, and CMC Arthritis. We're only diving as deep as you need to know for an entry level OT exam, so we don't overload you with too much info!
