The T-Chek Elbow combines the features of a gutter splint elbow brace and a traditional elbow brace. The large malleable cuffs provide enhanced tissue capture for arms that need additional control. The optional wrist and hand attachments maintain the arm in a neutral position without the need of a hand grip. The unique design facilitates healing by reducing brace migration and maintaining proper positioning.
