This comprehensive text is the perfect resource for use in the classroom,
during labs, and in clinical practice for both occupational and physical therapists.
Additionally, it is a great reference for those studying to become a
Certified Hand Therapist (CHT). Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and
Upper Extremity: Splinting Principles and Process superbly highlights
anatomical and mechanical principles; discusses associated indications and
precautions; and promotes clinical reasoning skills by presenting various
patient examples, therefore allowing you to confidently utilize techniques in clinical practice.
This updated third edition is divided into the following sections: fundamentals necessary for successful orthotic fabrication,
additional intervention methods, and orthoses for specific diagnoses and patient populations. Now with a larger
format for more generous pattern appreciation, as well as incorporated and revised evidence-based content from an
expanded list of contributing authors, it remains the go-to resource for every level of usage.
