Product Description - Packaging
The Donjoy GCI Shoulder Immobilization Vest is available from your online pharmacy in one size.
Shoulder immobilization helps promote tissue healing. Reduced movement between tissues facilitates their fusion. The stability provided by medical devices or surrounding tissues is insufficient to allow for optimal healing. Active movements generate stresses that exceed the tissues’ resistance, and supplemental immobilization is almost always necessary.
