Push ortho Hand Orthosis DPT

The Push ortho Hand Orthosis DPT is a dynamic extension brace for patients with Dupuytren’s contracture. The patented design applies a targeted, dynamic extension force to individual fingers. The innovative leaf spring system exerts a gentle stretching force on Dupuytren cords. When worn regularly for set periods, which applies a constant extension force, it is intended to lessen the angle of contracture or to stop it from increasing. 

The  Push ortho Hand Orthosis DPT can be used as first-line conservative treatment or in combination with other therapy. Both pre- and postoperative. When and for how long it should be worn each day are decided depending on the severity of the condition, to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Treatment goal:
Contracture reduction as primary therapy Complementing other treatments by reducing (residual) contractures Helping to slow the progression of an early or existing contracture Contributing to the maintenance of results after contracture treatment Remain comfortable and move freely during therapy
Prescribing a treatment plan means patients can have treatment in their own environment, while still being able to perform activities of normal daily living. Following an initial settling-in period, the extension force applied by the orthosis can be adjusted to suit. For the remaining treatment, a balance is struck between duration of wearing sessions, and patient comfort.
