Fabrication Process Manual for Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and Upper Extremity

Description:

Companion to the comprehensive hand therapy text, Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and Upper Extremity: Splinting Principles and Process This comprehensive manual 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). The Fabrication Process Manual complements the main text, Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and Upper Extremity: Splinting Principles and Process, and clearly presents step-by-step instructions for the fabrication of the orthoses as well as providing alternative orthotic treatment options. The various orthoses and techniques presented allow the therapist to tailor each orthosis for the specific patient.
