(CPM
)
device providing motion to the shoulder
joint.
Suitable for use in hospitals, clinics,
general practices and rental services, it
is an important supplement to medical
and therapeutic treatment.
CPM therapy with
ARTROMOT
®
-S3
is
mainly used to prevent the negative
effects of immobilization, to allow
patients to regain painless mobility of
joints at an early stage and to promote
healing and achieve a positive func-
tional result.
Other objectives of therapy include:
- improvement of joint metabolism
- prevention of joint stiffness (arthrofi-
brosis)
- promotion of the regeneration and
healing of cartilage and damaged
ligaments
- faster hematoma/fluid resorption
- improved lymph and blood circulation
- thrombosis and embolism prophylaxis
The CPM device is indicated in the
treatment of most injuries and postop-
erative conditions and diseases of the
shoulder joint.
Examples:
- joint distortion and contusion
- arthrotomy and arthroscopy proce-
dures in combination with synovec-
tomy, arthrolysis or other intra-articular
interventions
- all types of arthoplasty
- mobilization of joints in anesthetized
patients
- operative treatment of fractures,
pseudoarthrosis, if exercise-stable
- decompression surgery (acromio-
plasty)
- endoprosthetic implants
- soft tissue surgery in the armpit and
the shoulder girdle
- tumor surgery in the shoulder region
Do NOT use ARTROMOT
®
-S3
on
patients with:
- acute inflammatory processes in the
joints, unless on the order of a physi-
cian
- spastic paralysis
- unstable osteosynthesis
