A spica splint is a type of orthopedic splint used to immobolize the thumb and/or wrist while allowing other digits freedom to move. It is used to provide support for thumb injuries (ligament instability, sprain or muscle strain), gamekeeper's thumb, osteoarthritis, thumb sprains, post-operative use, and post-removal of casting of the hand/thumb.
