Abstract (en)
[origin: WO02054995A1] The present invention relates to an orthopaedic means for traction, for instance for traction of a shoulder dislocation. The orthopaedic device comprises a sleeve (3) for application around an extremity by a dislocated joint. The sleeve (3) is fabricated of a flexible fibre material and provided with horizontal and vertical elongated resilient elements (10a, 10b). A fixed grip of the arm is obtained by a detachable inner surface of silicon. The sleeve preferably has a self-locking fastening, e.g. Velcro hooks and loops (7), for quick and simple attachment, as well as a variable connecting member (8) with a loop (5) for holding weights. The invention also concerns use of the sleeve (3) for shoulder traction, where the sleeve is attached to the upper arm of a patient lying on his belly.
