When recovery hinges on precise alignment and patient comfort, settling for a basic traction kit is a risk you cannot afford. Our Premium Skin Traction Kit is engineered to provide the stable, gentle, and long-term support necessary for optimal healing from fractures, dislocations, and orthopedic procedures for both adults and children.
Feature | Our Medex Skin Traction Kit | Cheaper, Standard Kits |
---|---|---|
Adhesive Technology | Hypoallergenic, Low-Allergy Acrylic Adhesive: Designed for long-term wear, minimizing the risk of contact dermatitis, blistering, and skin breakdown, even on sensitive skin. | Often uses Zinc Oxide or Rubber-Based Adhesives: High risk of allergic reactions, blisters, and skin irritation, requiring more frequent application changes. |
Padding & Comfort | Integrated Soft PUF (Polyurethane Foam) Liner/Padded Straps: Features a thick, breathable foam strip bonded to the strapping to cushion bony prominences (like the heel and malleoli), distributing pressure evenly. | Thin or No Foam Padding: Focuses traction force on a smaller area, leading to pain, discomfort, and a high likelihood of pressure sores (skin breakdown) with extended use. |
Strapping Material | High-Conformability, Ventilated Strapping: The material is breathable and conforms smoothly to the limb contour, ensuring maximum skin aeration and reducing moisture build-up. | Stiff, Non-Breathable Materials: Prone to creasing, which creates pressure points and traps moisture, significantly increasing the risk of pressure ulcers. |
Retention Bandage | High-Performance Elasticated Retaining Bandage: Provides firm, consistent, and uniform fixation without restricting circulation (when applied correctly). | Basic Crepe or Cotton Bandages: May slip, loosen quickly, or provide uneven compression, compromising the traction force and alignment. |
Versatility & Safety | Non-Adhesive Option Available: Offers a gentler alternative for patients with known skin conditions or extremely fragile skin. | Typically only available in an Adhesive Version, limiting options for high-risk patients. |
Spreader Plate & Cord | Durable Spreader Plate and High-Tensile Weight-Carrying Cord: Ensures stable, controlled, and balanced traction force throughout the treatment duration. | Flimsy Components: Can lead to cord fraying or spreader plate instability, causing intermittent traction and sub-optimal alignment. |
Investing in our Medex kit saves your patients from complications and saves your facility resources:
Minimizes Complications: By significantly reducing the risk of skin breakdown, blistering, and pressure sores—common complications of cheaper kits—you reduce the need for expensive wound care interventions, secondary treatments, and prolonged hospital stays.
Ensures Compliance: A comfortable patient is a compliant patient. The superior, skin-friendly materials and cushioning encourage patients (especially children) to tolerate the traction for the prescribed duration, leading to faster, more predictable healing outcomes.
Reliable Alignment: The superior adhesive and strapping maintain consistent traction force, ensuring the bone fragments remain aligned, which is critical for preventing rotational deformities or malunion.
Choose the our Medex Skin Traction Kit for a solution that prioritizes patient comfort, clinical efficacy, and long-term cost savings.
