Description

The Medco Arm Compression Garment (#2081) is excellent for brachioplasty type surgeries. The premium grade "soft-flex" spandex with soft suede-like insides provides excellent compression and patient comfort.

The unique adjustable design allows the doctor to adjust the level of compression on the upper arm area. The front of the latex-free garment has two adjustable contact closure straps for easy application, and leaves the breasts exposed. The form fitting design can be worn under clothing.

To Apply Garment: Open the upper and lower chest straps and slip the garment on like a jacket. Once the garment is on, loosely secure the upper and lower chest strap via the contact closure tabs.

To Adjust the Arm Compression: The garment comes with a contact closure strip on each arm. The strip is designed to adhere to itself to provide adjustable compression to the upper arm area. To increase compression, fold the contact closure strip in half and apply to itself. Press down securely.

Once the arm compression is set, re-adjust the upper and lower chest straps for proper compression.

How is the adjustable arm compression secured?

The targeted compression on the upper arm area is secured and adjusted using a dedicated contact closure strip located on each sleeve.

  • Targeted Compression: Compression is focused precisely on the arms for procedures like brachioplasty, without applying unnecessary pressure to the chest area.
  • Compatibility: This allows the patient to comfortably wear a separate surgical bra, necessary monitoring equipment, or specific post-operative undergarments as prescribed by their physician.
  • Easy Application: The garment is worn like a jacket and is secured using two adjustable contact closure straps on the front chest, which makes donning and doffing simple.
How is the compression level adjusted?

Is the front closure easy to use?

Key features that contribute to ease of use and adjustability:

  • Quick Securing: The main closure straps on the chest are easy to manipulate.
  • Precise Compression: Beyond the main closure, a unique contact closure strip on each arm allows medical professionals to precisely set and adjust the required compression level for the upper arm.
