Immobilizing Orthosis - DonJoy EXOS 4 Fingers

A new alternative to traditional plaster!

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 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
