Hello List Members,
I have a 5 week old infant that is in need of custom wrist hand splints
for arthrogryposis. I thought I might be able to cast him, but his hands
are so small that this is not realistic. I did try. I am trying to find a
low temperature thermoplastic (including a recommended thickness) that
might be appropriate for this application. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
