Description
Paediatric High Arm Sling for Fracture Support & Immobilisation | NHS-Trusted
The Paediatric High Arm Sling offers targeted support and effective elevation for the smaller arm, wrist, and shoulder. Expertly engineered to provide stability and improved positioning for children, this sling is ideal for post-operative recovery, fracture healing, soft tissue injuries, and managing swelling.
Combining clinical performance with a comfortable, skin-friendly feel, this sling is the professional choice for reliable upper limb immobilisation designed specifically for kids.
Design & Clinical Engineering
Manufactured in Lancashire, UK, by Beagle Orthopaedic, this Paediatric High Arm Sling provides the three fundamental elements for a successful outcome: effective immobilisation, comprehensive support, and crucial elevation to help the healing of fractures and sprains. By keeping the child’s arm securely elevated, the design helps reduce swelling and promotes faster recovery.
This sling is constructed from premium Velfoam material, a lightweight, 100% breathable textile with a substantial 8mm-thick inner layer for robust support and all-day comfort. This material utilises VA Lock Surface technology, a highly hook-attractive outer layer that facilitates direct, precise, and secure fastening anywhere on its surface, enabling effortless and exact adjustments for a personalised fit on smaller frames.
The deep, contoured construction offers enhanced stability and comfort, improving immobilisation and versatility across a wide range of paediatric sizes. User convenience is further prioritised through the Easy Two-Click Application system; once initially fitted, parents or caregivers only need to engage two simple clips to apply or remove the sling. Its universal-fit design ensures the sling can be worn on either arm, simplifying patient management and inventory requirements.

Velfoam: Sustainable, Breathable, & Lighweight Orthopaedic Support Material
Velfoam is a trusted, high-performance material for orthopaedic supports, engineered for patient comfort and durability. It features a lightweight, 8mm thick, 100% breathable foam core that provides robust support while remaining soft against the skin.
VA Velfoam Technology is used on applications requiring adaptable fastening. The specialised VA material features a unique hook-attractive outer layer, allowing for the direct, precise, and secure fastening of orthopaedic closures anywhere on the material’s surface. This ensures that the brace remains exactly where it is placed, offering reliable, all-day stability and an effortlessly personalised fit.
Velfoam: PFAS, Latex & Neoprene-Free Sustainable Orthopaedic Material
An Eco-Conscious Choice. The Velfoam material is engineered to be entirely free from three problematic substances: PFAS, Latex, and Neoprene. By remaining completely PFAS-free, it contains none of the persistent “forever chemicals” linked to health and environmental risks, aligning perfectly with strict UK regulations.
Clinical Safety & Usability. The completely Latex-Free and Neoprene-Free formulation eliminates the risk of common contact allergies and skin irritation. This ensures broad clinical usability and maximum patient comfort, cementing TheraCore® as a safe, non-irritating, and sustainable alternative for modern orthopaedic care.
