Helps Restrain Your Elbow for a Variety of Reasons
The elbow brace can be used for many things - to prevent movement of an injured arm or prevent further damage to a surgery site. Some of the most common uses of this elbow support for treatment include:
IV THERAPY
This elbow splint is ideal for when your patient's movements must be limited, such as when they have IV therapy.
ULNAR NERVE ENTRAPMENT
This brace can be used for ulnar nerve entrapment (cubital tunnel syndrome) and ulnar neuropathy treatment. When your ulnar nerve becomes compressed, irritated, or pinched, you might experience an aching pain or tingling sensation on the inside of your elbow. It is one of the main nerves in your arm so keeping it immobilized will help minimize your pain. For even more support, check out our cubital tunnel brace.
ELBOW FRACTURES
If you are experiencing pain because of a broken elbow, you may want to use this splint after a surgery or when the bones are at low risk of moving out of place and you just want to keep it still.
POSTOPERATIVE USE
After surgery, your elbow may be unstable, weak and/or swollen—all scenarios where you could use support and immobilization. For that reason, this elbow splint can also be helpful post surgery.
ELBOW NIGHT SPLINT
This brace could also be used as an elbow nighttime splint. It will prevent painful movements while you are sleeping or resting and keep your arm in a comfortable position. Sleeping with your elbow bent can increase the pain you are experiencing. Using this brace will help you from bending your elbow too much.
