AliMed® Elbow Turnbuckle Orthosis

AliMed® Turnbuckle Elbow Orthosis helps maintain the gains in ROM achieved through elbow stretching and brace wear. The steel rod and turnbuckle mechanism in the dynamic elbow splint provide a low-load stretch to the elbow joint to gradually reduce the contracture and progress the range of motion incrementally. The turnbuckle with triangular-shaped grip easily adjusts with splint in place for optimal positioning.

Rigid Kydex® splint shell is hinged at the elbow, with the turnbuckle connecting the forearm and upper arm portions of the splint. Heat-adjustable for a custom fit. Two-piece T-Foam padded splint liner conforms for maximum comfort and is removable for hand washing. Elbow splint adjusts from 110º flexion to full extension. Fits left or right arm.

HCPCS Code: E1801. Use of suggested code does not guarantee reimbursement. Check with local DMERC for specific requirements.

Elbow Turnbuckle Orthosis must be used under a physician’s supervision. Specify size when ordering.
