Chattanooga Artromot Elbow Patient Instructions

Your physician has prescribed a continuous passive
motion (CPM) machine to help improve your range of
motion. Proper use of this device is critical to ensure that
you get an optimal result following your surgery. Your
J.I.M. Medical Representative will provide you with a
detailed care plan according to your physician's specific
orders. As you see your physician or therapist, they may
advise you and modify this protocol.
You should stop using the CPM if you experience a significant increase in pain or
swelling. Use of the CPM may be restarted with the approval of your therapist or
physician.
Prior to use, your CPM machine should be set up and adjusted for you by your
therapist, physician, or J.I.M. Medical Representative.
