More Information

  • Instructions For Use
    1. Put a basic splint on the patient.
    2. Determine in which plane the suspension point needs to be adjustable.
    3. Find a location on the splint that is parallel to this plane
    4. Feed the Orfitube through the Adjuster over the anticipated setting distance and fasten the screw of the adjusting ring.
    5. If the Orfitube fits the orthosis without bending, then continue with item 10. 6. In order to bend the Orfitube, first introduce the bending rod till beyond the adjusting ring
    7. Bend the Orfitube to the desired angle
    8. Remove the bending rod from the angle and if necessary make additional bends to end up in the adjusting plane again
    9. Completely remove the bending rod from the tube 10. Now slide the Orfitube into the Adjuster up to its most distal position
    11. For a few seconds, heat the underneath of the Orfitube Adjuster as well as the attachment location on the orthosis with a heat gun (watch out for overheating)
    12. Firmly press the Adjuster onto the orthosis in the desired position and allow it to cool down completely.
    Note: after heating, the Adjuster can be adhered to the following splinting materials: :
    - It is possible to attach the Orfitube onto other, non-adherent splint materials, by using suitable adhesives
    - In some cases, it may be possible to detach the adjusting ring and screw it directly onto the splint
    13. Cut the Orfitube to length using heavy scissors (or by incision and breaking)
    14. Press the Tube End firmly onto the Orfitube.
    15. Introduce an braided elastic equipped with a finger cuff.
    16. Give the required tension to the elastic. 
  • Adjusting the Orfitube
    - As it should remain possible to vary the elasticas suspension point during the course of rehabilitation, the Orfitube can be accurately adjusted.
    - By loosening the adjusting screw, the Orfitube can be rotated and/or translated.
  • Maintenance
    - Orfitube Adjuster does not require maintenance.
    - Clean with lukewarm water and soap.
    - It is not possible to sterilise an Orfitube Adjuster in an autoclave, although it can be sterilised using gas sterilisation.
    - It can be disinfected using alcohol.
  • Warnings
    - Do not use an open flame to heat the Adjuster fixation plate.
    - Only trained medical personnel should make and apply dynamic orthosis using the Orfitube Adjuster.
