Norco® Finger Extension Tube, Small 2" to 2.5”

Innovative orthotic facilitates PIP extension. The shape and design of the Norco® Finger Extension Tube provides a low stress, high duration capability, ideal for flexion contractures. Circumferential pressure helps restrict fluid to aid in edema reduction. Slide onto affected finger with the covered seam under the PIP/DIP joint. Tip of the finger should be visible. If needed, trim either end. Orthotic should fit comfortably, a firm fit is not required for effective results. Not recommended for flexion contractures greater than 50°. Avoid direct contact with open wounds. If skin becomes irritated, add a thin liner such as stockinette over affected skin area. Made of dense neoprene, polyester, and poly/cotton tape. Not made with natural rubber latex. To size, measure PIP joint circumference. Clinical tests have demonstrated superior performance compared to other extension devices, even showing success in digits that were unsuccessfully treated by other clinical means.* "A Preliminary Investigation of the Neoprene Tube Finger Extension Splint," E.
