Beschreibung

The FlexiOH® Short Arm Immobilizer is a state-of-the-art orthopedic device designed to immobilize the wrist joint and treat closed, stable, or non-displaced fractures of the radius and ulna. It is specifically suitable for distal radius fractures, buckle fractures, and injuries to carpal bones (excluding the scaphoid and trapezium).

Why choose FlexiOH® instead of a traditional cast?

• 100% Waterproof: You can safely shower, bathe, or even swim. The immobilizer does not get soaked, and the special padding allows the skin to dry quickly.
• Maximum Ventilation: Thanks to the lattice structure, the skin breathes continuously. No more sweating, irritation, or unbearable itching.
• Ultra-lightweight and Comfortable: Weighing only a fraction of a traditional cast, its discreet design fits easily under sleeves or jackets.
• Radiolucent: No need to remove the device during X-ray check-ups; the fracture line remains perfectly visible.
• Fast and Hygienic: The built-in zipper allows for quick application, and the skin can be cleaned through the gaps with soapy water anytime.

Key Features:

• Lightweight and comfortable: only ~300 grams.
• Breathable and washable design: hygienic even for long-term wear.
• Modern fixation technology: stable immobilization for safe healing.
• Patient-friendly: significantly better comfort compared to traditional casts.

Application Area:

• Non-displaced / stable / minimally displaced distal radius fractures.
• Buckle-type fractures.
• Carpal bone fractures (excluding scaphoid).
• Other closed injuries affecting the radius-ulna region.

Application and Use: The FlexiOH Short Arm Immobilizer is applied by a healthcare professional using the zipper. It is then cured with the recommended Rizycure® light device for 3-10 minutes, depending on the size. Once hardened, the zipper pull is removed with pliers to prevent the patient from taking it off.

Packaging: 1 pc FlexiOH® Immobilizer

Note: The light source required for curing (Rizycure® lamp) is a separate accessory and is not included in the basic package!

Sizing:

-Available in 8 sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, SM, SL, SXL.

-Precise measurement of the wrist and arm circumference is required before application for a proper fit.

MEASUREMENT GUIDE

FAQ:

• Is additional padding needed? No, the inner surface is lined with biocompatible foam, contacting the skin directly.
• How does the skin dry? Water evaporates naturally through the lattice, or the process can be sped up with a hair dryer (cool air).
• Can I take it off at home? No, it is a permanent immobilizer to be worn until the end of the healing process.
