if you have never fitted it before, don't get near it. It should be done
with an xray machine to make sure the fx is in the correct position.

Galveston Medical has aquaplast zipper stuff.

Galveston company pre-fabbing the device will sell one to you with a credit
card number.
Not sure on the name but I think it's Galveston Medical Manufacturing.
You could give me a call in the morning and I'll give you the number and
measurement specs.

I'm not sure of their phone number. However, the brace is made in Galveston,
Tx. and i believe the companies name is Galveston brace Manufacturing.

Any of the big suppliers should have the Galveston splint. Try Pel or SPS.
Its usually used for such diagnosis as boxer's fractures, etc.

I forgot where I ordered them, I have been just making my own. They are fairl
y simple to construct and they work great for metacarpal fxs. Look up PSS
(Physicians Supply Services), they may be able to obtain them.
