Abstract
A bracelet-like appliance for the treatment or prevention of carpal tunnel syndrome includes a C-shaped member having a central portion located over the dorsal side of the wrist and two arms encircling the wrist. Each arm has a pad for engaging the palm near the attachment edges of the carpal ligament at the medial border and the lateral border of the carpal bones. The bracelet also includes a pad attached to the central portion for engaging the dorsal part of the wrist. The member is shaped to cause the pad attached to the central portion to press against the dorsal side of the wrist while the ends of each arm press in the opposite direction on the edges of the palm. The C-shaped member is a single piece of resilient, malleable material, such as aluminum, or is divided into sections interconnected by spring loaded hinges.
