1 ABSTRACT This invention is directed to hand support and positioning device for surgical and post surgical purposes. It comprises a base, trough support, arm trough and attached adjustable hand support. The hand support is adjustable so that the forearm-wrist angle can be varied according to need, and also the metacarpophalangeal joint of the fingers can be placed in flexion or extension. These required position aids treatment by reliably fixing the patient's hand in position, and thus relaxing the patient. The hand support may be directly attached to the trough or to the trough support. Advantageously, the hand support has two pivotally connected surfaces, so that the finger-hand angle can be varied according to need. A goniometer arrangement is preferably included to allow accurate measurement of the angles.
