ABSTRACT:
A readily removable slip-on flexible finger covering having a tubular-shaped sleeve-like portion and an elongated elastic strap extending therefrom for securing thereon a fingertip connector for connection between an actuated drive bar of a continuous passive motion device and the fingertip connector located on the distal finger of a hand. The fingertip connector includes a base plate and a connector clip. The base plate is adapted to be secured to or retained by the finger covering and to provide contact with the distal digit of the finger. The connector clip extends outward therefrom and is adapted to engage with a complementary connector attachment that is attached to the drive bar or actuator.
