The Coolflex Standard Arm is an inelastic compression garment for the arm. Made of a lightweight, breathable mesh material that is known to transfer moisture vapor away from the skin, the product is ideal for patients with fragile or compromised skin. It features a pleated elbow, which encourages a full range of motion and added comfort. Individuals with limited dexterity or hand strength will find the hook closure system and strategically positioned bands ideal for independent application and removal. Pair the Coolflex Standard Arm with the Dorsal Pocket Glove for complete arm and hand compression.
