There is a new video tutorial live on The Benecare Academy: ‘How to Apply a Elbow Drop Out Splint’.
You can watch a small preview above and sign up here to watch the full 13 minute tutorial.
The elbow Drop out splint is manufactured using a combicast technique, the versatility of using a rigid and semi rigid casting material allows the clinician to provide the correct level of support for the indication.
Contracture of the elbow is a common complaint following a brain injury or trauma such as a fracture or dislocation. The elbow drop out splint will maintain the position whilst allowing additional physiotherapy to improve the range of extension at the elbow.
