DME-Direct carries one of the largest selections of adult and pediatric arm immobilizer products for managing acute injuries or recovery following surgery. Arm immobilizers are designed to help maintain your arm in a safe, protected position at your side to prevent further injury and feature breathable materials and elastic closures for comfort. In addition to standard varieties, you'll also find arm immobilizer styles with different shaped pillow wedges designed to place your forearm outward away from your body (we call it shoulder external rotation), in all different angles - especially important to note if you've had surgery. Check with your shoulder surgeon to be certain. Search below to find an arm immobilizer designed to provide support and protection for your type of shoulder injury.
What Kind Of Injury Is An Arm Immobilizer Used For?
Arm immobilizers are used for shoulder dislocations/separations, glenoid labrum repairs, SLAP repairs, rotator cuff repairs and more. They are ideally suited for preventing unwanted shoulder motion from occurring so that proper healing can take place after a delicate orthopedic procedure. They can also be used for immobilizing acute shoulder sprains right after the initial injury where enhanced comfort and motion restrictions are again indicated.
