Omomed

Omomed® has flexible strap system permits individual adjustment and variable limitation of movement at the shoulder joint. The highly elastic, active breathing and moisture-transporting clima-comfort® fabric, anatomically knitted around the upper arm and shoulder. The intelligent strap positioning ensure comfortable wearing and unrestricted function, even in everyday clothing. It is suitable for long-term use over several weeks.

Mode of Action
The elastic knit exerts gentle local compression on the superficial soft-tissues to limit and counteract swelling and reduce muscular tension. Limitation and prevention of injurious movements thanks to the adjustable, marked limitation of external rotation, abduction and anteflexion of the shoulder joint. Reduced tone in the muscles surrounding the shoulder corrects postural deficits in the shoulder with better centring of the head of the humerus in the glenoid cavity as well as easing shoulder pain.

Indications

• conservative and postoperative treatment following proximal fractures of the head of the humerus, the glenoid cavity and the scapula
• conservative treatment for painful osteoarthritis of the shoulder
• postoperative treatment after shoulder joint prosthesis
• conservative treatment for acute and chonic anterior dislocation of the shoulder
• postoperative treatment after stabilization of the shoulder joint
• reconstruction of the rotator cuff insertions and refixation of the biceps tendon anchor (SLAP lesion)
