Elbow Series
The elbow orthoses are effective in limiting the range of motion involved with flexion and extension. Both the Shoulder-Elbow-Wrist-Hand orthosis and the Elbow orthosis feature: an upper component – consisting of a Humerus fracture brace, an elbow hinge and a lower component – consisting of a Forearm-Wrist-Hand immobilizer. The lower component helps to eliminate distal slippage. The elbow hinge is a limited motion aluminum medial upright that is adjustable in 30° increment stops. This joint is slotted to allow adjustments proximal and distal to the elbow. These orthoses are easily customized utilizing a heat gun and scissors, as shown in the modification procedures. Each is provided with one presewn double layer cotton stockinette. Additional stockinette and straps are available separately.
