Instructions For Hyper-Ex Elbow
Support:
1. Apply the brace by sliding it up over the elbow. Place
the middle of the support over the elbow joint so that the support can
be flexed and extended easily.
2. Adjust strap A and B. These straps keep the hinge arms
parallel when extending the arm. Don't overtighten! Make sure the
hinges remain parallel.
3. Adjust the X-Straps. The tighter you adjust them, the
more support you will get in hyperextension.
4. Finally, tighten strap C around the upper arm. Don't
over tighten! The hinges can be adjusted individually to the arm if
needed, using a bending tool.
Washing
Instructions:
Remove the hinges and close hook and loop before washing. Hand
wash in warm water with mild detergent. Let air dry.
Note: If the patient is
allergic to latex, please consult a physician before use.
