We propose a system that consists of two parts: a personalized 3D splint that fits the treated muscle and allows a better and comfortable restraint of the damaged muscle, and an electrostimulator that is activated before splint removal. Such system decreases muscle atrophy, alleviates pain and allows initiation of the rehabilitation process simultaneously, resulting in savings of 80% of hospital visits, 25% of overall costs and 30% of time required for healing.
