Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to an angular digital device for joint deformity or imbalance. A device formed from a soft material shaped to fit a digit with straight segments and angled transitions at the interphalangeal joint levels such that rotational force(s) are created at the joint line(s). Additionally, an ‘open transition’ design with a dorsal strap element is described, and a design with an additional moldable, semi-rigid component added. A retention strap is described to prevent the splint from migrating off during sleep.

Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to an angular digital device for loss of distal joint extension. A device formed from a thin, rigid material shaped to fit the dorsal soft-tissue contour of the middle phalanx of a digit with one or more apex volarly angled distal projections which arise at the level of the distal interphalangeal joint and with a thin sling of material secured to the distal projection(s) by which the volar pad of the distal phalanx is supported in order to provide hyperextension of the distal joint of the digit while maintaining tactile function of the pad of the digit.
