Posey Finger Control Mitts Description
Posey Finger Control Mitts Helps lessen contractures and prevent patient from picking, scratching or interfering with IV or catheter. Fingers are seperated for maximum finger control. The palm of each Mitt is filled with machine washable fiber fill and the mitts secure with a hook and loop strap. Connect straps are included to limit range of motion, if necessary. Available in both open (POS2815) and closed (POS2816) end versions. Open end version accomodates pulse oximeter probes. Closed end version is covered with a mesh back to facilitate skin checks. Adult size; fits either hand.An article on rnweb.com entitled "New hope for stroke patients,"* discussed the benefits of a new type of neuro-rehabilitation therapy for stroke victims. Pioneered by Edward Taub, a psychology professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), the technique called constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT)** encourages stroke patients to use their affected limb by constricting the unaffected limb with a mitt. By using the affected limb, stroke patients can begin to regain and restore motor function.Download Product Instructions*Ellen Barker, RN, MSN, CNRN, APN, "New hope for stroke patients."

Great product, just took a while to receive due to the prescription issues
By: Lizzie
(Posted on 1/7/13)Product Rating These open end mitts are not made of mesh (hand side), and they allow fingers to peep through at the ends, allowing one to see fingers. They are also washable. Good product, just took a while to receive due to the prescription issues. I ordered and emailed them immediately afterwards with the prescription, took about 2 weeks before someone contacted me requesting the prescription to be emailed again. It would be better to receive the "confirmation" email after the prescription has been reviewed by the company.

posey finger control mitts the webing for the fingers does not contain fingers
By: Rhonda
(Posted on 1/6/12)Product Rating I like the pillow concept but I worry about the strap and tightness around the wrist in order so it does not allow the hand come out. I also can not keep the fingers in the finger slots of the mitt.

posey finger control mitts work but
By: Rhonda
(Posted on 1/6/12)Product Rating I like the pillow form it is soft but does allow the hand to come out if not tight enough around the wrist. I worry if I have it too tight around the wrist for the blood circulation. The plastic belt loop is hard and can irriate or hurt around the wrist and hand.

Finger Control Mitts - A Review
By: Karen
(Posted on 4/28/11)Product Rating Finger control mitts used for the adults with motion disabilities or cognitive that are generally at the risk of pulling out catheters or injuring themselves. The major advantage of the finger control mitt product is that it is secured with Velcro and it includes the connecting straps which help to limit the motion range whenever necessary. The finger control mitt is available only in two sizes and it fits all the adults.

Restored my husband's abilities
By: Isabelle
(Posted on 4/20/11)Product Rating When the doctor informed me that I need a mitt for my husband, I thought it's kind of weird. He goes to explain how the mitt will be used, saying that I need to put it in his left hand as his right side of the body is the one affected by stroke. I did just that, and slowly I understood why he asked me to do that. My husband was forced to use his right hands to move! For about 2 months I put the mitt in his unaffected hand and I observed how he recover. Right now, he is completely able to move!

Finger Control Mitts Review
By: Nina
(Posted on 4/12/11)Product Rating I have a terrible habit of scratching myself so badly. I couldn't get rid of it my self so my mom got me this. Especially while sleeping my hands get out of my control and it made me have a lot of scars. Anyone who has the same habit as mine would need it. It's not stuffy at all. You can have good night sleep having wearing it of course.
