Product Description
Please see alternate images above for SIZING and additional description information. --Mayo Clinic Elbow BraceAn innovative control knob and adjustable hinge, provides exceptional stability and comfort while allowing for immobilization, static stretch or free motion option of the elbow. The sturdy metal uprights provide stability, while the straps with aircells securely hold the brace in position, ensure patient comfort and avoid pressure points. The brace is used immediately after surgery to protect and immobilize the elbow joint. In the immediate post injury or post surgical period, the brace may be used to comfortably immobilize the elbow due to the effectiveness of the aircell strapping systems. For static stretch, the control knob is set to the desired degree of flexion/extension. Once the arm muscles have stretched to the designated degree, the muscles can relax minimizing the inflammatory response that can occur in dynamic stretching. In addition, the control knob can be unlocked allowing for free range-of-motion (ROM). This unique feature enables the patient to have the benefits of stability and protection while promoting elbow movement to prevent or treat contractures. The Mayo Clinic Elbow Brace also controls ROM through the use of metal stops located in the adjustable hinge. These stops, inserted into the hinge by the medical professional, ensure that the patient does not exceed predetermined safe limits of ROM. Accessories include an Arm Sling (included with each Elbow Brace) to enhance patient comfort and the ARC Forearm Rotational Brace (sold seperately) for control of pronation/supination.Product Features and BenefitsLock/unlock mechanism enables a rapid switch between immobilization, static stretch, and free ROMCalibrated control knob is easy to read and assists in monitoring therapy progressRepositionable hinge stops control ROMUniversal design can
