Functions of the Posterior long/short Arm Splint

Immobilization and Stability for Effective Healing

One of the primary functions of the Posterior Arm Splint is to immobilize the elbow joint, ensuring stability and safeguarding the surrounding soft tissues. Immobilization is vital in preventing further damage to the joint and tissues following an injury or surgery.  The splint effectively restricts movement, allowing the body to focus on healing without the risk of aggravating the injury. This function is especially important during the early stages of recovery when the risk of re-injury is at its highest.

Post-Surgery Protection and Comfort

For patients recovering from elbow surgery, the splint serves a crucial role in providing protection during the healing process. Surgical procedures often require immobilization to ensure that the surgical site heals properly and to preserve joint integrity.  The Posterior Arm Splint fits securely and comfortably, giving patients peace of mind as they navigate daily activities while knowing their elbow is well-supported during this vulnerable recovery period.

Supporting Rehabilitation and Gradual Movement

Once the initial healing phase has passed, rehabilitation exercises become essential for restoring strength and mobility. The Posterior Long/Short Arm Splint supports this transition by allowing for the gradual reintroduction of movement.  While providing the necessary support to avoid overexertion, the splint ensures a safer and more effective recovery. This approach enables patients to regain their functional abilities at a controlled pace, reducing the risk of setbacks.

Addressing Joint Contractures and Muscular Weakness

The splint is also beneficial for individuals with elbow joint contractures, which are characterized by limited range of motion. Contractures can result from prolonged immobilization or injury, and the splint helps by encouraging proper positioning, which is essential for effective stretching and strengthening exercises.  Additionally, for patients dealing with muscular weakness from disuse or injury, the splint provides stability, making it easier to engage in therapeutic exercises aimed at rebuilding strength. The combined functions of immobilization and support make it a versatile tool in both short-term recovery and long-term rehabilitation.
