Instructions For 3005 Hyper-Ex Elbow Support

Apply the brace by sliding it up over the elbow. Place the middle of the support over the elbow joint so that the support can be flexed and extended easily.

Adjust strap A and B. These straps keep the hinge arms parallel when extending the arm. Don't overtighten! Make sure the hinges remain parallel.

Adjust the X-Straps. The tighter you adjust them, the more support you will get in hyperextension.

Finally, tighten strap C around the upper arm. Don't overtighten! The hinges can be adjusted individually to the arm if needed, using a bending tool.

Washing Instructions

Remove the hinges and close hook and loop before washing. Hand wash in warm water with mild detergent. Let air dry.

Note: If the patient is allergic to latex, please consult a physician before use.
