NEMOA™ FLEX

FEATURES OF NEMOA™ FLEX
Nemoa™ Flex provides flexible and softness even when it is completely cured.

Flexibility helps to prevent muscle atrophy and stiff joints, also preserves the functionality of muscles and tendons.

Nemoa™ Flex can be used in combination with rigid casting tapes and secondary casting.

SUGGESTED APPLICATIONS
ORTHOPAEDICS
Functional immobilization where a limited amount of joint movement is permissible.(eg. Sprains, Ligament damage, Joint Strains and in cases of stable or minor Fractures)

SPORTS MEDICINE
Ideal for use by Athletes during training, as Nemoa™ Flex provides protection and support of vulnerable joints while allowing limited movement within the functional range. The 'softness' of the cast structure will limit injuries to other players.

SECONDARY CASTING
Recommended for use after primary fracture healing has occurred, as the flexible nature of a Nemoa™ Flex cast will decrease the joints stiffness, which results after rigid cast immobilization.

CAST BRACING
In conjunction with rigid immobilization of the fracture, Nemoa™ Flex can be used in Functional Cast Bracing to allow movement of the proximal joints.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• Apply stockinette to the relevant area. Apply padding to bony prominences as desired.
• Select appropriate size and colour of Nemoa™ Flex.
• Disposable gloves should be worn when applying Nemoa™ Flex.
• Open one roll at a time.
• Immerse the Nemoa™ Flex bandage for a few seconds in room temperature water, then squeeze 3~4 times.
• Apply the bandage by wrapping spirally around the limb.
• Setting will occur in approximately 3~5 minutes, with functional immobilization in 15minutes.
• The number of layers used will determine the amount of support obtained, ie. 
• The greater the number of layers, the greater the cast resistance and corresponding decreasein range of motion.

PRECAUTIONS
Cool, dry storage in 15~30° C is recommended. Storage at extreme temperatures will decrease the effective shelf life of the material.
