How does it work?
Breathable design for longer wear
The sling uses breathable mesh fabric to improve airflow and reduce heat build-up. As a result, it tends to feel more comfortable during extended use, especially in warmer weather or when you need all-day support.
Neutral positioning to support healing
Good positioning matters. The OPPO 3289 supports your forearm and helps keep your shoulder and arm in a neutral, protected posture. The padded shoulder strap adjusts for height and comfort, while the thumb loop helps prevent rotation and improves stability.
Simple, secure application
Slide your forearm into the mesh pocket, place your thumb into the loop, then bring the strap over your shoulder and secure it with the buckle system. Adjust the strap so your elbow sits at roughly 90°. Finish by fastening the hook-and-loop closure for a snug, secure fit.
What is it used for?
The Mesh Arm Sling – OPPO 3289 suits a range of shoulder and arm conditions, including:
- Shoulder subluxation or dislocation
- Brachial plexus or nerve irritation (as advised by your clinician)
- Upper arm injuries including fractured humerus
- Post-operative protection after rotator cuff repair or shoulder arthroplasty (follow your surgeon’s protocol)
In many cases, your physiotherapist will adjust your wear time as pain settles and movement control improves. For post-op planning, see
post-operative shoulder physiotherapy.
