Occupational therapists in Hong Kong have been very active in the management of patients with traumatic hand injuries due to industrial accidents. Splints have been prescribed as an adjunct to the exercise programme in rehabilitation. Other than the conventional thermoplastic splinting materials, metal hinges, coils and plastic strapping were used in splinting. The ultimate goal is to maximise the hand functions such that these workers could resume their work roles.
香港的职业治疗师在因工业意外导致手部创伤的患者管理方面一直非常活跃。夹板已被规定作为康复锻炼计划的辅助手段。除了传统的热塑性夹板材料外,金属铰链、金属丝和塑料绑带也被用于制作夹板。最终目标是最大限度地恢复手部功能,使这些工人能够重新回到工作岗位。
