摘要：
The invention relates to an orthosis for attachment to a human hand (20) for immobilizing the carpometacarpal joint of a thumb and metacarpophalangeal joint of a thumb. It comprises a stiff body (2, 52, 102), which has a metacarpus section (5, 55, 105) and a stiff thumb section (6, 56, 106). The former is formed by a section of a curved and stiff element and has a first end (5a, 55a, 105a) and a second end (5b, 55b, 105b) which are spaced apart. It is designed such that it can be placed against the palm of a hand (20) below the metacarpophalangeal joints of an index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger such that it extends over at least part of the palm and at least partly rests on the latter. The thumb section (6, 56, 106) extends from the metacarpus section (5, 55, 105) and has a first end (6a, 56a, 106a), which is attached to the metacarpus section (5, 55, 105) or formed by a part of the metacarpus section (5, 55, 105), and a second end (6b, 56b, 106b), in the region of which a ring-shaped or ring segment-shaped thumb holding section (7, 57, 107) is provided. The thumb (22) can then be arranged in the ring opening (10, 60, 110) defined by the thumb holding section (7, 57, 107), which extends over at least part of the circumference of the thumb (22) and braces the thumb (22) against movement in the direction of the palm.
