What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

In people with chronic hand conditions, hand orthoses are frequently prescribed to improve performance in activities of daily living (ADL). Conventional hand orthoses are custom-made on a plaster cast of the hand, a process that is time-consuming and labor-intensive. It has been demonstrated that the production time of manufacturing hand orthoses can be reduced by using 3-dimensional scanning and printing (i.e. 3D-printed hand orthosis), offering a promising cost-effective alternative to conventional hand orthoses. The current study builds on a previously conducted feasibility study, which demonstrated comparable effects of 3D-printed and conventional hand orthoses on ADL performance, hand function, and quality of life in people with chronic hand conditions. User satisfaction and production time favored the 3D-printed orthoses. However, to date only small and self-controlled studies have
