The ARTROMOT
®
-F is a motorized
motion device used for Continuous
Passive Motion (CPM) of the hand and
finger joints.
Its use is an important contribution to
medical-therapeutic treatment both in
clinics /doctors’ offices and in rental
services.
CPM therapy with the ARTROMOT
®
-F
mainly serves to prevent the negative
impact of immobilization, regain painless
movement of the joints quickly, and
ensure a faster healing process with a
positive functional result.
Other objectives of the therapy include:
– Prevention of joint stiffness
(arthrofibrosis)
– Better joint metabolism
– Support for the healing of cartilage
areas and damaged ligaments
– Faster haematoma resorption
– Better lymph and blood circulation
– Prevention of thrombosis and
embolism
– Reduction of post-operative pain
The motion device is indicated in the
treatment of most injuries, postoperative
states, and diseases of the hand and
finger joints, for example:
– Capsulotomy, arthrolysis and tenolysis
for post-traumatic stiffness of MCP
and PIP joints
– Open reduction and rigid internal
fixation of intraarticular, diaphyseal
and metaphyseal fracture of the
phalanges and metacarpals
– Flexor and extensor tendon tenolysis
– Flexor and extensor tendon synovec-
tomies, following arthrotomy and
drainage of acute septic arthritis
– Prothetic replacement of MP and PIP
joints
– Stable fractures
– Crush injuries of hand without fractures
or dislocations
– Hand or digit reattachment
– Dupytren’s Contracture Release
