Forearm sling for upper limb bracing
May 05,2023

Forearm sling, also known as arm sling, upper limb sling, shoulder neck wrist strap, triangle sling, which are suitable for fixation of arm falls, elbow fractures, and minimally invasive upper limb surgery where fingers need to be fixed upwards. In clinical practice, patients with upper limb fractures (such as shoulder joint dislocation, elbow joint dislocation, clavicle fracture, humeral epicondylar neck fracture, humeral shaft fracture, forearm double fractures, etc.), hand injuries, brachial plexus nerve injuries, shoulder or upper arm injuries, shoulder surgery, stroke hemiplegia, and other upper limb diseases need to undergo forearm suspension. The binding method of arm fracture sling is generally used for patients after arm fracture. The forearm sling can be used for suspension to make the elbow joint bend 90 degrees, and then placed in the middle position in front of the chest for suspension and dressing. In addition, the fracture area needs to be externally fixed with a splint, plaster tray, or support to facilitate fracture healing for patients. For such patients, early hand swelling is certain to occur, and finger flexion and extension activities are needed to promote venous reflux, which is beneficial for reducing swelling. In terms of diet, it is necessary to avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and quit smoking and alcohol, as these can affect the healing of patients' fractures. In addition, under normal circumstances, it is generally protected until about a month and a half for X-ray follow-up. If callus growth is found, the external fixation can be removed, and the joint's flexion and extension activities can be strengthened by hot washing to restore normal joint mobility. After a child's arm fracture, it is generally necessary to pay attention to protection during sleep. Because children do not have the same level of consciousness as adults, they may experience involuntary vigorous exercise, which can cause dislocation or affect fracture healing. It is generally recommended to strictly remove plaster or add external fixation, and use bandages or triangular scarves to suspend the affected limb in front of the chest to sleep. This can ensure stable fixation, facilitate venous reflux, reduce swelling, and facilitate later fracture healing. This is the position for a child to sleep with a broken arm. For patients with a child's arm fracture, healing is generally fast. Under normal circumstances, there should be obvious callus growth around three to four weeks, and then X-ray examination can be performed. If there is callus growth, the external fixation can be removed, and then hot washed to strengthen the flexion and extension activities of the joints to restore normal function.
