The Axilla Abduction Splint is a specialized medical device designed to immobilize and support the shoulder and arm in an abducted (away from the body) position. It is primarily used to assist with healing and recovery after shoulder surgeries, dislocations, or injuries.

Uses and Benefits:

1. Post-Surgical Recovery: Provides immobilization and positioning support after shoulder surgeries like rotator cuff repair or joint replacement.
2. Shoulder Dislocation: Prevents further damage and promotes proper alignment following a shoulder dislocation.
3. Injury Rehabilitation: Aids in the recovery of soft tissue injuries, fractures, or muscle tears in the shoulder area.
4. Pain Relief: Reduces stress on the shoulder joint and surrounding muscles, alleviating discomfort.
5. Prevention of Adhesions: Keeps the shoulder in the correct position to prevent adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder).

Features:

1. Adjustable Abduction Angle: Allows for various angles of abduction (typically 30 to 90 degrees), depending on the specific medical requirement.
2. Comfortable Padding: Made with soft, hypoallergenic materials to prevent skin irritation during prolonged use.
3. Lightweight Design: Ensures ease of wear and mobility while maintaining proper support.
4. Secure Straps: Equipped with adjustable straps to keep the splint in place without slipping.
5. Ergonomic Fit: Designed to contour to the patient’s body for comfort and effectiveness.

How to Use:

1. Placement: Position the splint under the arm, ensuring the shoulder is abducted to the prescribed angle.
2. Securing Straps: Fasten the straps around the arm, chest, and shoulder as instructed to provide secure and stable support.
3. Adjustment: Adjust the straps and abduction angle as needed to ensure comfort without compromising immobilization.
4. Wearing Duration: Follow your healthcare provider’s recommendation for how long to wear the splint each day.

Who Can Benefit:

• Patients recovering from shoulder surgeries or injuries.
