HIGHLAND™ SHOULDER SLING

The prefabricated Highland™ Shoulder Sling has been designed to limit chronic shoulder subluxation/dislocation. The orthosis holds the humerus in position and also prevents stretching of the tendons and ligaments due to poor muscle tone in the shoulder area following CVA, ligamentous rupture or peripheral nerve injury. Also indicated following resection of the distal end of the clavicle. The sculpted scapular component diffuses the weight of the arm across the shoulder girdle to minimize discomfort. Modular flexible scapular and humeral components are interchangeable to mix and match for varying patient shapes and sizes [e.g., dispro-portionately large circumference upper arms in geriatric females.]

Lightweight, low profile design is anatomically contoured for maximum patient comfort and function
Simple fasteners for easy donning/doffing by patients with limited manual dexterity
Soft elasticized straps with additional padding to protect delicate skin
Washable/replaceable Coolfoam™ liners reduce perspiration build-up, improve patient comfort and promote patient compliance
Easily trimmable components for customized fitting
