Immobilizing Splint for Fracture - Boa® Short Immobilizing Orthosis - DonJoy EXOS

A new alternative to traditional plaster!

The open thumb design allows for easier adjustment and patient comfort, while the lycra top cover allows for faster heating and cooling to speed up the application process.

The ability to thermally mold the fracture orthosis ensures adequate uniform support and comfort.

Exos is the only orthotic system that offers patients a removable, adjustable, remodelable and waterproof solution for treating fractures and other injuries that require stabilization.

The Exos orthosis is removable, allowing:

• Examination of the fracture site
• Examination of a wound or incision
• Assessment of muscular atrophy
• Ability to begin rehabilitation therapy earlier in the healing process
• Cleaning the skin and orthosis
• Removal without using a saw

The orthosis Exos is remodelable, allowing:

• Modification to accommodate anatomical changes as healing progresses
• Serial position changes
• Use of a single orthosis throughout the treatment period
• Reduction of material waste

The orthosis Exos is adjustable (using the exclusive BOA® dynamic spool and lace closure system), allowing:

• Expansion to allow for initial swelling and reduce the risk of compartment syndrome
• Modifying tension for a custom fit despite atrophy or soft tissue changes
• Improved patient comfort and fit

The orthosis Exos is waterproof, allowing:

• Have patients continue with their regular daily activities, such as bathing
• Let children stay active
• May athletes continue their aquatic activities
• Using a hairdryer to quickly dry the brace and skin

The orthosis Exos was designed for better hygiene, allowing:

• Have patients wash and dry their hands as needed
• Material treated with antimicrobials to reduce odor

The orthosis Exos is radiotransparent, allowing:

• Taking x-rays without removing the brace
• Clinical assessment of fracture healing without the need for restructuring
• Exos orthoses are significantly lighter than cast or fiberglass orthoses

The BOA Closure System allows for quick adjustments in circumferential compression and can be locked with the BOA Lock Ring provided with each orthosis.

Indications:

• Fractures of the distal radius.
• Distal ulna fractures.
• Acute injuries.
• Postoperative.
