  • The Thumb Spica Fracture Brace (TSFB) is designed to replace fiberglass and plaster casting and provide rigid immobilization to the forearm, wrist and thumb. It provides stability and support for injuries to the first metacarpal-phalangeal (MCP) joint, the first carpo-metacarpal (CMC) joint, and the wrist joint. The TSFB is indicated for all injuries to the thumb, such as Bennett's or complex Rolando's fractures, suspected or confirmed navicular (scaphoid) fractures, and for other carpal bone injuries. The thumb extension, which completely immobilizes the first digit can be trimmed to any length to allow varied thumb flexion. The TSFB is also indicated for fractures to the distal radius or distal ulna, Colles fractures, Salter-Harris pediatric wrist and forearm injuries. It can be employed for acute injuries as well as post-operatively.
  • The signature feature of this fracture braces is the Boa® adjustable closure system that provides for minute adjustments in circumferential compression. It can be tightened or loosened instantly as indicated eliminating the need to split or bivalve casts to avoid compartment syndromes or Volkman's ischemia. Post-operatively, the Boa® system allows loosening and/or removal to examine a patient's wound without needing to cut off or replace a cast.
  • The ability to heat form and custom fit the cast to the patient's extremity ensures proper uniform support and comfortable fit.
  • The Thumb Spica Fracture Brace is designed with a fully releasable Boa® Reel and Velcro® closure. Please see the Instructions for Use PDF for more information. It is not compatible with the Boa® Locking Ring.
  • Exos braces are radiolucent and do not need to be removed for X-ray imaging.
  • Does not contain latex.
