Adjustable Locking Elbow Orthosis Braces

The CORERA Adjustable Locking Elbow Orthosis is a structured orthopedic brace designed to support, stabilize and position the elbow joint during professionally directed recovery and rehabilitation.

Unlike a basic compression sleeve, this orthosis features an adjustable position-locking joint system that allows the elbow to be secured or limited at selected angles. The structured upper-arm and forearm sections help provide controlled support around the elbow while reducing unwanted movement.

The adjustable hinge mechanism may be configured according to the fitting instructions provided for the individual user. Depending on the exact manufacturer and model supplied, the orthosis may provide immobilization, controlled flexion and extension, or progressive range-of-motion adjustment.

This is a prefabricated orthosis that requires individual fitting and adjustment. It may need to be trimmed, bent, molded, assembled or otherwise modified by a person with appropriate fitting expertise before use.

Intended Use

This elbow orthosis may be suitable for customers who have been advised to use structured elbow support as part of a professionally supervised treatment, rehabilitation or recovery plan.

Potential applications may include:

• Controlled elbow stabilization
• Clinician-directed immobilization
• Post-procedure elbow support
• Progressive range-of-motion programs
• Support following certain soft-tissue injuries
• Prevention of unwanted elbow movement
• Situations where a standard elbow sleeve provides insufficient support

The suitability of the orthosis depends on the customer’s condition, measurements, prescribed joint position and the exact manufacturer model selected.

Adjustable Joint System

The elbow joint may be adjusted to limit or lock movement at selected positions.

Adjustment options vary by model and may include:

• Fixed-position elbow locking
• Flexion limitation
• Extension limitation
• Progressive range-of-motion control
• Incremental angle settings
• Immobilization at a prescribed position

Joint settings should follow the instructions of a qualified healthcare or rehabilitation professional. Customers should not independently change prescribed settings without appropriate guidance.

Sizing and Fitting

Accurate measurements are required before ordering.

Depending on the selected manufacturer, CORERA may request:

• Right- or left-arm selection

• Forearm circumference
• Elbow circumference
• Arm length

• Prescribed locking position
• Height and weight
• Relevant fitting instructions

Do not select the product based only on clothing size.
