Contactless Remote 3D Splinting during COVID-19: Report of Two Patients.
Publication/Presentation Date

Abstract
We used calibrated 2D images uploaded by patients to an online platform to generate a 3D digital model of the limb. This was used to 3D print a splint. This method of 3D printing of splints was used for two patients who were not able to visit the hospital in person due to restrictions placed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Both patients were satisfied with the splint. We feel that this technology could be used to offer additional options to conventional splinting that allows contactless splint fitting.
