0 degrees C:
- An ABS portion of the splint was placed in a freezer set to 0 degrees C for a period of 30 minutes
- The structural integrity of the ABS was determined to be the same before and after the test
- This is determined by applying a compressive force onto the ABS
- This is determined by applying a compressive force onto the ABS

Breathability
- Breathability was determined subjectively
- User wore splint while performing tasks over a period of four hours
- Comfort level of hand was determined via user feedback and sweatiness level
- User confirmed that breathability was acceptable, though the hypafix layer was getting somewhat sweaty
