  Omomed  
  Shoulder support with movement-limiting function  
     
     
 
 
 
 

Indications

conservative/post-operative after proximal humeral head, scapula or glenoid fractures and AC joint dislocations

conservative with anterior shoulder luxation and chronic anterior subluxation as well as painful omarthrosis

post-operative after shoulder stabilisations, rotator interval reconstruction, refixation of the biceps tendon anchor

 
 

Contra-indications

conservative and postoperative treatment of posterior shoulder luxation

diseases or injuries of the skin in the area of use, especially with inflammatory symptoms (excessive warming, swelling or reddening)

sensitivity and perfusion disorders of the arms (e.g. in the case of diabetes)

lymph outflow disorders, as well as undiagnosed swellings of soft tissues, apart from the area of use

 
 

Mode of action

The slightly compressive knitted fabric exerts gentle local compression on the superficial soft tissues to alleviate swellings and reduce muscle tensions.

Limitation and prevention of injurious movements is kept in check by the upper (white) strap. Tthanks to the marked limitation of external rotation, abduction and anteflexion of the shoulder joint, the injured shoulder can rest, thus relieving pain.

THe support also corrects postural deficits in the shoulder with better centering of the head of the humerus in the glenoid cavity.

 
 

Features

 
compressive knitted fabric exerts gentle compression on soft tissues to reduce swellings
 
elastic strap system permits individual adjustment and variable limitation of movement at the shoulder joint
