Abstract
Current hand splinting methods, materials, and components are reviewed and summarized. Additional subjective and objective tests of thermoplastic materials are performed and results combined with those from other studies. Available samples of thermoplastic materials are tested for fatigue and viscoelastic properties using standard compression cycling methods. Soft splint materials are seeing increased application and appear to be the material for the future.
