Shoulder and Neck

The purpose of these orthoses and splints is to support and fix the upper extremity in a certain position to achieve rest of one or more joints. Indicated for soft tissue injuries (blunt wounds, burns, infections, etc.), rheumatic conditions (scapulohumeral periarthritis, acute inflammatory rheumatism of the shoulder, elbow and wrist, etc.), trauma (serious contusions, shoulder or elbow dislocations, acromioclavicular dislocation , humeral neck fractures, clavicle fractures, etc.), Post-surgical containment (osteosynthesis of long bones, articular fractures of the upper extremity, etc.)

Arm and Elbow

The purpose of these orthoses and splints is to support and fix the upper extremity in a certain position to achieve rest of one or more joints. Indicated for soft tissue injuries (blunt wounds, burns, infections, etc.), rheumatic conditions (scapulohumeral periarthritis, acute inflammatory rheumatism of the shoulder, elbow and wrist, etc.), trauma (serious contusions, shoulder or elbow dislocations, acromioclavicular dislocation , humeral neck fractures, clavicle fractures, etc.), Post-surgical containment (osteosynthesis of long bones, articular fractures of the upper extremity, etc.)

Hand and wrist

The purpose of these orthoses and splints is to support and fix the upper extremity in a certain position to achieve rest of one or more joints. Indicated for soft tissue injuries (blunt wounds, burns, infections, etc.), rheumatic conditions (scapulohumeral periarthritis, acute inflammatory rheumatism of the shoulder, elbow and wrist, etc.), trauma (serious contusions, shoulder or elbow dislocations, acromioclavicular dislocation , humeral neck fractures, clavicle fractures, etc.), Post-surgical containment (osteosynthesis of long bones, articular fractures of the upper extremity, etc.)

Spine

Belts are often used as a complementary treatment in cases of thoracolumbar injuries. In many cases, they help to recover mobility in the area and significantly relieve pain. It is essential that its use is supervised by a spinal specialist, to avoid other types of injuries.

Knee

Uses of the knee orthosis: a hard structure orthosis can be used after an operation to tear the cruciate ligament. A soft orthosis may be the treatment of choice for less severe injuries, for example, to stabilize and immobilize the knee after injuries to the medial or lateral collateral ligaments.

Foot and ankle

Foot and ankle orthoses provide the following elements:

• Security. The ankle and foot orthosis provides security to the movement and reduces the fear of moving the ankle and foot by providing external support.
• Maintains heat and compresses, ideal for maintaining circulation and cleaning out toxins.
• Helps relax muscles and reduce pain.

Canes and Crutches

Orthopedic canes are devices used to improve locomotion. Canes work by providing supplemental support and support to the body as the person walks. They are often used when the body is unable to support itself and needs a therapeutic supplement to help.

Wheelchair

Wheelchairs are mobility devices and are designed to allow the movement of those with locomotion problems or reduced mobility, due to injury or illness.

Walkers

A walker or walker is an orthopedic product designed for people with disabilities or in rehabilitation, and sometimes for minors; who need support to hold and maintain balance while walking.

Sanitary Devices

Sanitary chairs, duck chair, bathroom chair, portable bathroom are the different names for the articles that allow the patient to perform their physiological and personal hygiene needs from the comfort of their room

Diagnosis

Home use oximeters are small and battery operated. Monitoring the level of oxygen in the blood can save time on doctor visits and are an important aid in maintaining an active life for those suffering from respiratory disease. Its use is highly recommended for people who suffer from chronic respiratory disease or sleep apnea.

Anti-decubitus mattresses

Pressure ulcers (UPP) are today an important health problem and are a quality indicator with a direct relationship in nursing care.

Pressure relief devices are special support surfaces, specially designed for the prevention and improvement of patients suffering from this type of injury. Pressure relief treatment must be considered as a whole: mobilization, postural changes, use of special support surfaces and local protection against pressure. The relief surface cannot replace other elements.

Oxygen therapy

A nebulizer is a device that divides liquid medications into very small droplets. The cloud is conducted through a plastic tube that is attached at one end to the outlet of the device and at the other to a plastic piece that is placed over the mouth or inserted into the nostrils. Nebulizers are used to treat conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), post-COVID symptoms, and other conditions where inhaled medicines are suitable. Nebulizers deliver a stream of air with medication into the lungs over a period of time.

Hospital beds

Hospital beds are essential equipment to provide good care to patients. They vary in size, performance, utility, versatility, and quality.

Electric beds

• Electric beds provide easier adaptation, comfort and adjustment. The most advanced beds have an automated system that allows the integration of multiple elements in the same structure.
• They are the most recommended, especially in cases where the patient has little mobility and physical dependence.

Manual beds

• On the other hand, manual beds are easier to acquire.
• The change of position must be carried out manually, that is, by operating levers or special handles.
