Wrist replacement is a surgical procedure used to relieve wrist pain and increase joint movement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Replacement of damaged cartilage or bone in the wrist joint is referred to as wrist replacement. Moreover, wrist bone is resurfaced with implants made of metal alloy or polyethylene to mimic the functions of a healthy joint. Wrist replacement orthopedic devices are intended to provide additional support to the wrist to avoid complications. This orthopedic device assists in keeping weak joints and limbs at the proper position.
