Case 33 || Solution || Last Part

@medic_altimesMT

The answer to the given question is “Saturday Night Palsy”

⏹Treatment:

✅Patient can apply a ‘Static Cock Up Splint’ which will keep their wrist in extended position till the time nerve recovers. Now if the nerve recovers in 1 to 2 weeks then it’s fine. But if the nerve takes around 4-5 weeks to recover then it would not be beneficial, as by that time the wrist would have assumed a Extension deformity/contracture/ stiffness

✅So we use a ‘Dynamic Cock Up Splint’ (Option D)
