After much request over the years, I've finally added the standard style Hand MCP a.k.a. EDS splint that helps stabilize and protect against hyperextension of the hand MCP joints, with a loop added to the top so that it can be attached to a swan neck or dual splint. In the second picture you can see the comparison of my hand in hyperextension vs. my hand stabilized with an MCP splint on the middle finger. This splint can often be worn on the middle finger to help stabilize the joints throughout the hand, but depends greatly on the general laxity of the tendons running across the MCP joint. If there is severe laxity or fingers that are particularly troublesome this splint can be worn on any finger(s) it is needed for.
Another great use for this splint is to stop a tendon from snapping side to side over the knuckle, which is a common problem with injury to the MCP joint or finger tendon or laxity of the tendon. The splint will help to stabilize the tendon and hold it in place.
The EDS Loop splint is the splint and hinge only. Swan neck splints and dual Splints can be purchased separately, or you can attach splints you already own. As with the dual splints, the EDS Loop splint cannot be hinged to swan necks with decorative elements such as swirls/roses/skulls or to mallet support splints.
