When is an arm sling used?
Arm slings are commonly used after fractures, sprains or surgery to keep the arm supported and still, often alongside a cast. Collarbone (clavicle) and upper-arm fractures are among the most frequent injuries in children and teenagers — your doctor may recommend a sling, a figure-8 clavicle brace or a cast depending on the injury.
Please see your doctor or healthcare professional for diagnosis and to confirm the right support and size for your child.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I put the arm sling on my child?
Place the hand in the pouch, adjust the sling around the shoulder to a comfortable position, and rest the thumb in the thumb cradle. Position the shoulder pad over the shoulder joint for comfort. You can watch the tutorial on our YouTube channel.
When should my child wear a sling?
A sling is generally used when recommended by a doctor after a broken, sprained or surgically repaired arm, to support and immobilise the arm — including over a cast, with a waterproof cast cover for bathing.
How do I clean these supports?
Hand wash in mild detergent and warm water below 30°C without wringing. Do not dry clean, bleach or iron. Close the hook-and-loop fasteners before washing.
