For Adduction or Abduction of the Fingers. Use
the SIRIS™ Buddy Ring to “buddy up” a
straying finger with a neighboring finger. It is appropriate
when there is stability in an adjoining finger, but
not for ulnar drift
of all digits due to rheumatoid arthritis.
Buddy Ring Offsets. You can order the SIRIS™
Buddy Ring with no offset or full offset between the
rings. “No offset” positions the rings side
by side, creating slight abduction
of the fingers. “Full offset” positions one
ring distal to the
other ring to follow the webspace
of the hand or to place one ring farther from the webspace
to assist with finger adduction.
2 1/2 Buddy Ring. Use the SIRIS™ 2 1/2 Buddy
Ring, which has two rings connected by a one-half ring,
to align fingers that are crossing or have an extension
lag. This type of deviation
may arise following trauma, post polio or from tendon
transfers.
Pulley Ring. Use the SIRIS™ Pulley Ring
to manage bowstringing
at the A-2 pulley.
To determine the width of the ring, measure proximal
to the PIP volar
crease to allow full flexion.
