  • Patient Evaluation : Assess the patient's medical history, hand function, and any existing conditions affecting the hand.

  • Imaging : Conduct pre-operative imaging such as X-rays or CT scans to determine the extent and location of the injury or condition.

  • Surgical Planning : Plan the surgical approach, including the size and placement of the "Compact Hand Plates - 1.5 mm Straight Plate" based on the imaging results.

  • Informed Consent : Obtain informed consent from the patient after discussing the procedure, risks, and expected outcomes.

  • Pre-operative Instructions : Provide the patient with pre-operative instructions, which may include guidelines for fasting, and skin preparation to minimize the risk of surgical site infection.
  • Anesthesia : Administer local or general anesthesia based on the patient's condition and surgical plan.

  • Incision : Make a small incision over the injured area to access the bone requiring stabilization.

  • Plate Preparation : Select an appropriately sized "Compact Hand Plate" and contour it as needed to fit the bone anatomy.

  • Plate Placement : Securely position the straight plate over the fractured or fused bone using surgical screws through pre-drilled holes.

  • Wound Closure : Close the incision using sutures or staples, ensuring proper wound care and dressing application.
  • Recovery Room : Transfer the patient to a recovery area for monitoring until they awaken from anesthesia.

  • Pain Management : Manage post-operative pain with prescribed medications and non-pharmacological interventions as needed.

  • Rehabilitation : Initiate a hand therapy program to promote range of motion, strength, and function of the hand.

  • Follow-up Care : Schedule follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress, assess hand function, and remove sutures or staples as necessary.

  • Activity Restrictions : Advise the patient on activity restrictions and hand immobilization techniques to prevent further injury and promote optimal healing.
