WHAT DOES ELBOW DISLOCATION MEAN?
Elbow dislocation is the most common dislocation in children. Sometimes, the dislocated elbow is connected with forearm fracture. Elbow dislocations typically occur when a person falls onto an outstretched hand. When the hand hits the ground, the force is sent to the elbow. Usually, there is a turning motion in this force. This can drive and rotate the elbow out of its socket.
An elbow dislocation should be considered an emergency injury. These kind of injuries are treated by keeping the elbow immobile in a cast plaster or sling for 2 weeks, followed by early motion exercises. For professional elbow immobilization you will need special child arm sling AM-SOB-03.
WHAT IS CHILD ARM SLING AM-SOB-03?
Our arm child sling AM-SOB-03 immobilizes elbow perfectly. It should be used for conservative treatment and after surgery. The sling is anatomic shaped and keeps the elbow in therapeutical flexion.
Sling AM-SOB-03 is seamless and lightweight. This makes the child sling for broken arm treatment a more comfortable experience that does not irritate the skin.
Unlike some other slings, our sling AM-SOB-03 has special arm strap which does not put the pressure on the neck. The strap has a shoulder pad so that the child-size arm sling does not irritate the shoulder and neck.
What is more, our child arm sling has special trunk strap which maintains the arm adducted. This solution keeps the arm in the neutral position and prevents against the involuntary abduction. Due to this, our pediatric sling AM-SOB-03 provides excellent treatment for injuries in the elbow, arm and shoulder area.
Thumb loop, that is used in the sling, prevents the wrist from dropping or dangling out the end of the sling for kids. This loop also helps keep the arm in its proper position and relieve strain on the wrist, forearm and hands.
