These splints can also be personalised by the user by choosing the desired structure as well as colours of the whole splint or its parts. The open and dismountable structure of EXO splints (other than the structures of splints in the market or other conceptual 3D models) offers the opportunity to use "x3m" splints for open bone fractures or in post-surgery treatment, when a large surface of naked skin is needed due to wounds.
An open structure of EXO splints allows for an earlier-than-usual application of rehabilitative procedures, which reduces the risk of post-traumatic complications. Theoreticaly, this helps to shorten the period of needed rehabilitative treatment, and reducing the overall injury healing period for up to three times.
