Manumed RFX wrist brace and forearm support

The orthosis combines maximum stability with a high degree of comfort in wear. Manumed RFX provides a high degree of immobilasation and is an effective alternative to traditional plaster casts. Manumed RFX is suitable for use on fractures of the distal radius and forearm as well as all indications that require stable immobilisation of the wrist and/or forearm.

Product benefits

• Stable immobilisation of the wrist and distal forearm

• Reduces swelling and inflammation

How does it work?/Mode of action

Immobilisation and stabilisation of the wrist and the forearm by a volar and dorsal aluminium splint.

Donning/fitting instructions

The initial fitting should be supervised by a healthcare professional. The aluminium splints have already been anatomically pre-shaped. If necessary, the volar splint may be removed and easily adapted to different hand and arm contours. The dorsal splint may be adapted directly on the brace. Slide your hand into the brace. The straps have been set to maximum width at delivery and usually do not have to be opened beforehand.
Close all straps one after the other in the numbered sequence from 1-4.
Belts 2-4 have been secured with double-sided Velcro® to the brace and may be shortened to the desired length.
Finally, check that the brace fits properly. It should be positioned firmly and straightly on the arm without it cutting in. It should be possible to sufficiently move all the fingers.

Wearing directions

Only wearing the Manumed RFX consistently will support the therapy.
