CHRISOFIX®

It may be necessary to fixate the elbow following an injury or an operation or as a result of stress and strain. In these cases it is quite fundamental that appropriate stability is provided, but it is also highly important to be able to wear an orthosis that provides comfort as well, as fixation of the elbow joint is a highly uncomfortable state in itself.

The Chrisofix® elbow orthoses cater to both sets of aspects , and we also provide a model that allows for a certain degree of elbow motion when it is indicated.

Do you have elbow pain? Have you had elbow surgery?

There are a myriad of injuries and conditions that may lead to pain in the elbow. The pain may make everyday tasks highly uncomfortable. The pain may originate from overuse or degenerative diseases, arthritis or quite commonly from injuries.

Who is most often affected by elbow pain?

Elbow pain may occur at any age. It may develop in younger patients as well as the elderly.

How long should we wear the orthesis?

Depending on the severity and the origin of the symptoms wearing the orthosis may be necessary for a few weeks or even for a few months, therefore comfort stability and hygienic considerations are paramount.

Why Chrisofix® elbow orthesis?

In the conservative treatment of elbow pain (meaning without an operation) and following elbow surgery resting the painful joint in the appropriate position is paramount.

The innovative design of Chrisofix® elbow ortheses ensure exact and precise fitting thereby preventing unwanted and uncomfortable potential symptoms caused by ill-fitting orthoses (pain caused by pressure and symptoms of skin irritation).
