“When my son Billy injured his arm, the doctor told us that he may never be able to straighten his arm again. He loves wrestling and dreamed of earning a college scholarship. About two weeks after surgery, he began wearing the Dynasplint® Elbow System. He is now about 5° short of full flexion and has completely regained extension. Thank you for keeping a little boy’s dream alive!”

Pediatric/Infant Dynasplint^® Systems

Dynasplint Systems, Inc. is the only company to develop a complete line of dynamic splints indicated for range of motion therapy for pediatric and infant patients. Pediatric and Infant Dynasplint^® Systems can be used in the treatment of childhood diseases and injury, such as, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, fractures and dislocations. Early application of Pediatric and Infant Dynasplint^® Systems restores range of motion that is critical in basic developmental activities such as reaching, crawling, and walking.

Low-load, prolonged-duration stretch (LLPS) has been used successfully for more than 50 years to treat joint stiffness and limited range of motion caused by shortened connective tissue. The spring-loaded Dynasplint^® Systems constantly seek the patient’s available end range of motion and continue to gently stretch the joint. Dynasplint^® Systems’ technology applies LLPS to permanently lengthen soft tissue using the principle of TERT (Total End Range Time).

Dynasplint^® Systems are fully adjustable and comfortable, achieving high patient compliance that ultimately leads to high efficacy. They can be used alone or as an adjunct to physical and occupational therapy. Early application can dramatically reduce time and cost associated with range of motion rehabilitation—in many cases by more than 50 percent.

Common Diagnoses:

Fractures Dislocations Brachial plexus injuries Burns

Idiopathic toe walkers Head trauma and spinal cord injuries Cerebral palsy (CP) Other neurological conditions(PDF)

How Do I Get a Dynasplint^® System?

All Dynasplint^® Systems are available by prescription/certificate of medical necessity only. Ask your doctor or therapist to prescribe one for you if medically indicated to help increase your range of motion.
