Arm immobilizers are lightweight, flexible devices designed to restrict arm movement—primarily at the shoulder and elbow—during recovery from injuries or post-surgery. They provide temporary support to stabilize the arm while promoting proper healing without the rigidity of a cast.
These devices are typically reusable and made from durable materials like fabric or foam. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as medical devices and may require compliance with safety and performance standards depending on their intended use and design.
