A spica splint consists of a metal enclosed in a fabric, which is pliable and can be moulded according to the shape and size of the hand. Velcro strips are used to secure and maintain the splint on the hand and help in comfortably fitting the splint to a variety of hands.
Splint care: 1  You may remove the splint each day to wash your finger. 2  When your splint is off, do not try to bend the tip of your finger.  Put your splint back on as soon as possible. When you apply new tape, make sure the splint is in the same place and position. You may also need new tape if the splint gets wet.
