For the treatment of clavicle fractures, we developed a functional splint, which is an improved splint of S. I. Kuzminsky. It provides repositioning and stable fixation of fractures, allows us to maximally raise, retract and keep the shoulder girdle in an elevated position during the period necessary for the fracture to heal.
