- Be sure to comment below with specific kinds of splints you'd like me to talk about in a future video!
This video covers basic splinting principles you need to know for a generalist OT exam, including what is a functional vs protective splint; what is a static, static progressive, serial static, and dynamic splint; what you need to watch out for when you're crafting a splint.

Your videos are amazing!! All the topics covered are the ones I really needed! I passed the exam and these videos made it easier.. thank you again :)
Please keep going. Make part 2. You are amazing
Diagnosis with the correct splinting: Carpal tunnel, Mallet finger, gamekeepers, Boxer’s fracture, dorsal hand burn, swan neck deformity, and dequervains ! Thank you and looking forward for the video
agreed~
An ulnar gutter splint can be used for Boxer's fracture; these are brilliant suggestions!
Can't wait for part 2
Patiently waiting for part 2 🙏🏾
LOVED this thank you! Part two, part two!!
These videos are so helpful as I study for my MSK OT exam
What a big help, thank you! A video focused on various types of splints and possible reasons why they are used; these questions are, in fact, unique as per the wording, yet, the degrees and positions make everything confusing.
This video was super helpful to me! I have always struggled with splints and this made it more clear! I hope you will do more videos!
This was SO helpful! Currently studying for the NBCOT and always get confused and overwhelmed when learning about splints. I struggle the most remembering the splints and timelines for specific splints to use for nerve injuries in the UE, that would be super helpful! Also splints for tendon repairs (flexor vs extensor tendons).
I AGREE.
This was a really useful video - please make more :)
Thank you for this! Your video was very helpful!
It was great explanation !!!!! Thank you !!
Love your videos!!!
Thank u ❤️ I needed this
I'm OT student from Taiwan. Your explanation is really clear and helpful, thanks a lot.
It's really great topic! Loved this series, hope you'll keep on sharing videos.
I am an OT from Turkey. OT is here for 10-12 years (education)
You know OT is new profession in a lot of countries. So if you share videos about fundamental and essential topics of OT( I mean that OTs absolutely know), it will help OTs.
By the way, I didn' see your videos about Wheelchair and Vocational Rehab. I will watch them later. Thank you very much!🌸
Could you keep on sharing videos, please?
They're so useful and valuable. 😊
I loved this! Super detailed and easy to follow. I was wondering if you could do different types of splints like splints for tendon tears and femur fractures but explained like how you did here. That would be awesome (:
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!!!!!!!
I’ve just been diagnosed, what I wonder is how its going to progress with psoriatic arthritis?
I had surgery for excision of cervical rib causing clawing of my hand and atrophy, post surgery and my therapist recommended a cock up splint and after watching a bunch of videos on clawing and what's needed, I feel like I don't need that kind of splint since I don't have wrist drop. Please what kind of splint do I need.
Thanks 🙏
Hello, my name is Victor and I am preparing for my NBCOT Exam. Please, which material is used, or should be used for Short Spica Orthosis. Is it self adherent material or highly drapable material?
Did you come across a question that asks this specifically? If so, I'd argue it's not a good exam question because there is not really a right or wrong! Every therapist has different preferences for the materials they use. High drape and self-adherent are not mutually exclusive either. You would likely want a material with good drape to wrap well around the thumb, and I personally also need self adherent with the pattern I use to seal it closed!
👏 thank you for the tutorial. 🩹 🎃🦇
Good evening, Beka. I watched your videos and I found them great, thank you so much for your efforts and care. I would like to know how are you doing and how can I keep in contact with you. I mean, do you have nother channel or site, etc? Or and you not interested anymore? I hope you are fine. Thank you so much.
