More Information

Shoulder abduction slings are a popular option for a number of injuries, keeping the affected area elevated and in a safer position. When used properly, they can speed up rehab timetables and prevent injuries from worsening. The Shoulder Abduction Support System, Universal Size is a premium, affordable product with a unique design that offers maximum support. A cross-body sling keeps the wedge insert secured with multiple straps, ensuring that it stays upright to hold the patient's arm in place.

Patients and physicians can put the shoulder abduction system on quickly with a user-friendly wedge system that can be adjusted to one of several angles. The shoulder straps fit over the patient's neck, and then the wedge is placed inside the fold. Once set to a desired angle, it props the arm up on the wedge at anywhere from 0 to 90 degrees. Incremental adjustments include 0, 15, 30, 60, and 90 degrees. This helps patients at early and late stages of recovery to enjoy a tailored fit for optimal healing.

The Shoulder Abduction Support System with Universal Sizing is comfortable and meant to feel light on the body. Multiple straps ease the burden on any single area, spreading out the weight evenly. They are also adjustable, allowing the patient to find a position that feels secure and stays in place while they are moving. It is made to wear on either side of the body and can be switched with a few simple steps.
