A.L.P.S.
Hand Fracture System
11. Achieve final fixation
• This may involve all locking screws
• Alternatively, a non-locking screw can be used
to lag fragments to the plate
• When desired, 1.5 mm non-locking screws or
2.5 mm Locking (green) screws with washers
can be placed through a compression hole to
afford axial compression at the fracture site
12. Postoperative management
• A compressive dressing is recommended
with a plaster splint or a bulky “soft” splint
placed depending on the surgeon’s individual
assessment of fixation and patient compliance
• Early motion of the interphalangeal and
MP joints may be possible with intermittent
splinting until union, depending on the
surgeon’s preference and assessment of
patient compliance
