PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
Your Push med elbow brace features continuously adjustable extension restriction for the elbow joint. This prevents overstretching. The required degree of restriction can be set easily with one hand. Two stiffeners provide support and direction to the flexion and extension movements.
So-called comfort zones of padded material have been created around vulnerable areas of the elbow. A proper anatomic fit and the material and the silicone application contribute to the brace remaining in place during movement.
The brace is made of Sympress(tm), a high-quality comfortable material. The use of microfibres makes the inside feel soft and keeps the skin dry. The Push med elbow brace can be washed normally.
INDICATIONS
- Impingement in the case of overstretching (capsular clamping)
- Persistent complaints after elbow dislocations and/or fractures
- Degenerative disorders of the elbow joint
There are no known disorders where the brace cannot or should not be worn. In the case of poor blood circulation in the limbs, a brace may cause hyperaemia. Avoid applying the brace too tightly in the beginning.
Pain is always a sign of warning. If the pain persists or the complaint deteriorates, it is advisable to consult your doctor or therapist.
There is also a tennis elbow brace in the med range and an epicondylitis support in the PSB sport collection.
DETERMINING SIZE / FITTING
The elbow brace is available in 5 sizes. Bend the elbow at an angle of 90° in relation to the upper arm. Measure the circumference of the elbow, as shown in the illustration on the packaging. The table on the packaging shows the correct brace size for your elbow.
A
Hold the inside of your hand towards you while your elbow is bent slightly.
Use the stiffener ends to slip the brace on your arm
Alternate between the left and right stiffener ends, to ensure that the brace fits symmetrically on the arm.
The brace is properly located when you feel the protruding part of the elbow in the opening.
Lift your arm to expose the zip and close the zip.
Close the non-elastic band at the back of the upper arm.
B
Use the non-elastic bands to set the required stretching restriction. The stretching movement of the elbow is restricted more as the Velcro is attached further towards the hand.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
Before washing, close the Velcro to protect the brace and other laundry.
The brace can be washed at temperatures up to 30°C, on a delicate fabrics cycle or by hand. Do not use any bleaching agents.
A gentle spin-dry cycle can be used: after this, hang the brace up to dry in the open air (not near a heating source or in a tumble drier).
To extend the brace’s service life, it should be dried after use, if necessary, before being stored.
IMPORTANT
- Proper use of the Push brace may require diagnosis by a doctor or therapist.
- Optimal functioning can only be achieved by selecting the right size. Your reseller’s professional staff will explain the best way to fit your Push brace. Save the product information, to be able to reread the fitting instructions later.
- Consult a specialist if the product requires individual adaptation.
- Check your Push brace each time before using for signs of wear or ageing of parts or seams. Optimal performance of your Push brace can only be guaranteed if the product is fully intact.
