NEWPORT® SHOULDER SYSTEM
This prefabricated
or custom-to-measurement [pelvic section only] orthosis utilizes the unique
Newport3 hip orthosis pelvic components to allow for full pelvic weight
bearing, eliminating the need for shoulder straps which are often uncomfortable.
Unique shoulder joint controls adduction/abduction, flexion/extension,
and rotation of the shoulder and arm, offering the orthopaedic professional
a true choice of positions. Lined with neoprene, the orthosis is lightweight,
comfortable, and easy to don and doff. Replacement pads available. Scapular
stabilization prevents anterior movement of the scapula so that connective
tissue between the shoulder and the scapula is not stretched. This feature
is designed to prevent or treat adhesive capsulitis [reduced range of
motion of the shoulder joint] which often occurs following shoulder surgery.
