Helpful tips:

If it is necessary you should previously take out and curve a metallic splint, adjusting it to personal peculiarities of hand structure, and also to undo strap-fixators.
Then put a cuff of the orthosis on the wrist joint so as the metallic splint would be on the palmar surface of hand and forearm.
Do up the strap-fixators. Fasten the orthosis in the area of wrist joint with detachable strap-fixator. The last one should bridge wrist slit.
