I had seen a 53 year old woman in consultation who injured her ring finger flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon when she fell while climbing stairs. This resulted in a closed injury with the tendon having avulsed from the distal phalanx. She was unable to flex her finger properly. I repaired the tendon. She was referred for Occupational Therapy for the Kleinert method of tendon gliding rehabilitation. She came in for evaluation on post op day #6 with her hand in a most marvelous dynamic splint. At the time, I did not know the name given for this particular splint. It allowed for exact tension and independent movement of all of the fingers of the hand. She had excellent instruction by Mr. DiLorenzo and was able to continue easily with home exercises. Her result was superb, with 95% active motion of the affected ring finger. I would highly recommend the DiLotrax device for any future patient with a flexor tendon injury.

I was involved in a auto accident and had my tendon rupture on my little finger! My entire hand was swollen,stiff and so painful following a delayed tendon surgery. I was able to use the DiLotrax system with along with my splint for protection. The Dilotrax system helped me move and stretch my fingers in the beginning phase and i was able to progress to the next level. Smart and simple to use!

I used the DiLotrax for a patient with Radial nerve Palsy. It was easy to attach to my dorsal custom orthosis and my patient was satisfied with effectiveness. Patient was able to perform everyday task with this low profile orthosis. "Beats outrigger fabrication and smooth mechanism with excellent assistive movement!!!"

In February of this year I had tendon transfer surgery on my right hand. I was referred to John DiLorenzo for OT. Initially I was somewhat hesitate about the whole idea because I didn't know what to expect. My hand was totally closed and nonfunctional. John assured me that I would be fine and that he was going to make me a special customized hand splint that would make my recovery faster and the use of my hand much better. John did just that, he made a special hand splint for me (Dilotrax) that has changed my life. Along with therapy, not only is my hand now functional, my quality of life has improved. This was the best decision I ever made. John is the best, he's very patient and listens to his clients, this is also very important during the healing process. I'm still in therapy and so far the results are wonderful!
