Abstract
A wrist splint assembly for being custom-fitted to a hand and wrist to be supported. The wrist splint assembly includes a first splint for being positioned against and formed to the volar aspect of the hand and wrist, and a second splint for being positioned against and formed to the dorsal aspect of the hand and wrist. Each of the first and second splints defines a concave side edge extending inwardly toward the longitudinal axis of the splint for permitting ease of movement of the thumb and associated carpometacarpal joint of the hand against which the splint is positioned. Each splint also includes an inner cushion layer, an initially flexible intermediate layer overlying the inner cushion layer, and a flexible outer layer. The intermediate layer is a substrate impregnated with a moisture-curable resin that hardens upon curing to form a rigid structure of the substrate that retains a shape into which it is molded during curing for maintaining the flexible inner cushion layer in a conforming shape against the hand and wrist. A support retains the first and second splints in position on the hand and wrist during use of the splint assembly.
