IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please read all instructions, warnings and
precautions before use.
INTENDED USE
The DeRoyal Static-Pro®elbow orthosis was
designed for the treatment of joint stiffness, and
established soft tissue contractures, which may have
resulted from trauma, immobilization, or neurological
disorders. The orthosis should only be used under
the supervision of a qualified health care professional.
Protocols for use vary depending on the diagnosis
and should be determined after consulting with the
patient’s physician. The
Static-Pro®assists in either
flexion or extension in one unit.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
The Static-Pro®orthosis should not be used if any
of the following conditions exist: Sever
e spasticity,
sever
e osteoporosis, and/or thrombophlebitis. If
pain, numbness, swelling, or skin irritation occurs
while wearing the orthosis, the device should be
removed. The patient should be r
e-evaluated and
appropriate adjustments made.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT:
Before applying
the orthosis, disengage the
gearing mechanism by
pulling the engagement knob
(1) outward and at the same time pivot the position
adjustment knob (2) back toward the back of unit. The
forearm cuff should move freely.
Note: The adjustment
knob (2) should be positioned under the elbow, in
order to allow the device to achieve full flexion.

Static Progressive Orthosis
Single Patient Use
Rx Only
1. Sizing and Molding
the biceps and
forearm cuffs:
The
biceps and forearm
cuffs are designed to
be trimmed to fit each
patient. Using scissors,
trim enough panels from both sides of each
cuff so that the ends of the cuffs do not
overlap when on the patient.
Note: The blue
foam liner should extend 1/2" beyond the
white Wire-Foam
™
. To adjust the position of
the forearm and biceps cuffs, loosen the
screws (4), position the cuffs, and retighten
the screws.
2. Donning the unit: Unfasten forearm and
biceps straps. Place orthosis on the arm, with
the hinge on the medial (inside) side of the
ar
m.
Note: The unit can also be placed on the
lateral side (outside) of the ar
m; however, the
black knob is easier to adjust when wearing
the unit on the medial side. Position the axis
of the hinge centered at the elbow joint. Mold
the biceps cuff and the forearm cuff around
the ar
m, and fasten the straps with the hook
and loop closure for a snug, comfortable fit.
Note: Pulling on the welded end of each strap
will tighten the strap.
3. Position elbow: Position the elbow at its
active end range, in either flexion or extension.
The active end range is the extent to which the
arm can be flexed or extended without help.
4. Engage gearing mechanism: Pull the
engagement knob (1) outward and pivoting
the position adjustment knob (2) forward
towards the wrist. The black engagement knob

will click into place. Note: To fully engage
the gearing mechanism, the position
adjustment knob may need to be rotated
slightly.
5. Adjusting the
orthosis position:
Rotate the position
adjustment knob (2)
until the joint’s soft
tissues are stretched
to patient tolerance.
Note: See Patient
Protocol Card to determine the appropriate
amount of stress, and wearing time.
6. Getting more flexion: Remove the two
forearm cuff screws (4). Rotate the cuff
parallel to the axis of the arm, so that the
cuff opening is aimed upward, and replace
the screws. Trim all white Wire-Foam
™
trim
zones on the forearm and Biceps cuffs.
Note: Do not trim the soft foam liner. Retain
the trimmed trim zones in case they are
needed for extension assist.
7. Removing orthosis: Disengage the gearing
mechanism by pulling out the engagement
knob (1), and at the same time pivot the
position adjustment knob (2) toward the
back of the unit. The forearm should move
freely. Unfasten all straps.
8. Changing softgoods: Remove the four
screws on the biceps plate (3) to remove the
biceps cuff. Attach new biceps cuff. Remove
the two for
earm cuff screws (4) to remove
the forearm cuff. Attach new forearm cuff.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Clean Wire-Foam™pads and exterior of hinge with
non-abrasive cleaner. Straps and blue liner may
be machine-washed. Air-dry liner and straps prior
to wearing.
PRECAUTION
Caution should be used if any of these conditions
exist: peripheral vascular disease, healing skin
wounds, severe spasticity, heterotrophic
ossification, and mild osteoporoses.
