Indications
• Traumatic injuries of the upper limb
• During cast immobilization
• After surgery in the area
The Mitela Light of “Orthoteh” provides a comfortable support in keeping the arm up in fixed position. It therefore reduces pain and swelling. The mitela is stable and doesn’t move out of place because the elbow always falls into the specific opening, no matter if there is a cast or not. The ventilated 100% cotton fabric is comfortable for using in direct contact with the skin as well as with a gypsum or polymeric immobilisation.
To put on
1. Place the traumatised upper limb in the Mitela Light. The elbow should fall into the opening.
2. Pull the shoulder strap over the healthy shoulder, slip it through the rectangular buckle and set is in place using the Velcro strip.
