3M Futuro One Size Arm Sling

The 3M Futuro one-size-fits-all arm sling is an orthopaedic device made of padded, breathable material. Its purpose is to provide maximum comfort to the arm. Its function is to immobilise the limb that has an injury in any of its parts in order to favour its recovery and avoid movements that could injure it.

Each part of this sling is designed to protect the arm and avoid any discomfort, which is why it has a padded cartridge. In this piece, the arm rests on an ergonomic support that adapts to the morphology of the limb and allows the skin to perspire properly. All this to avoid the excess perspiration that can be produced by having the arm in the cartridge holder for long hours.

The strap or strap that holds the cartridge holder to the shoulder has a pad that softens the pressure that the weight of the arm exerts on it. In addition, it can be moved to be positioned exactly where it is most comfortable. This strap also has a piece to shorten or lengthen it, and ends in a quick-release buckle.

There is also a thumb loop on the hand rest part of the pouch to suspend the thumb. This is intended to reduce the fatigue caused by suspending part of the hand in the air.

Farmaciasdirect recommends the use of this brace for those who have a fracture in any part of the arm, joint pain or are recovering from surgery.

People with sprained wrists, elbows or shoulders will benefit from the use of this immobiliser.

Unbuckle the strap that joins the piece, bend the arm and insert it into the cartridge holder. Pass the strap that suspends it on the opposite side of the neck. The pad should be between the shoulder and the neck. At this point, the buckle can be fastened together. The arm is comfortably suspended horizontally. In this way, muscle, bone and joints are immobilised to promote rest.

To increase comfort, the thumb is inserted into a loop at the end of the cartridge holder.

To remove the halter, pass over the head to leave the whole piece on the same side so that the arm and hand can be gently pulled out.

There are no contraindications to the use of this halter.
