Push Ortho CMC Thumb Brace

Osteoarthritis of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb (CMC-1) causes functional instability of the joint at the base of the thumb as a result a weakening of the ligaments.

The Push Ortho CMC thumb brace has been designed with functionality in mind, it helps to stabilise the basal joint of the thumb and places the thumb in a functional position. The thumb brace will allow the user to both use the thumb unhindered and relieve pain in the localised area.

It is ideal for sufferers of osteoarthritis.

Indications

  • Postoperatively after arthroplasty of the CMC-1 joint
  • Instability of the CMC-1 joint
  • Osteoarthritis of the CMC-1 joint

ARTG No. : 219743

How does it work?

The Push CMC stabilises the basal joint of the thumb (CMC-1) and places the thumb's metacarpal (metacarpal 1) in a functional position. This creates a functional thumb arc, which remains stable while the hand is used. It relieves the pain when the thumb is under stress.

This method of stabilisation leaves the MCP-1 joint and the wrist free, to allow maximum functioning of the hand. For optimal performance, the aluminium core needs to fit closely to the thumb.

Size Guide
