R140301 RHIZOMED RIGHT I

Description

Orthosis to immobilize the thumb, the rhizome orthosis is specially designed to immobilize the thumb. Immobilization is useful especially during an operation on the go, for example fixing cracked side strips (often a consequence of skiing accidents). Specially designed for post-operative treatment, the rhizomed is designed in such a way that the orthosis does not exert pressure on the surgical scar. The orthosis can also help relieve pain in osteoarthritis, wear of the thumb joint. In order for the orthosis to be reliable, it is usually individually adapted by an orthopedic technician.

Mode of action

Movement-related pain can be prevented by immobilisation of the thumb metacarpophalangeal joint and / or saddle joint.
Reliable immobilisation of the thumb metacarpophalangeal joint and/or saddle joint.
No pressure is exerted on the operative stitches due to the open design.
Mobility in line with therapeutic goals is assured by enabling the fingers to move freely.
Intended purpose

Thumb brace for immobilising the saddle joint and / or metacarpophalangeal joint.
