The Shoulder Sleeper Pillow
The Shoulder Sleeper Pillow™ is a patented supportive device designed to help improve sleep comfort following surgery. Designed by a physical therapist with input from leading orthopedic surgeons, The Shoulder Sleeper supports the shoulder, elbow, and wrist in the ideal position for recovery.
Therapeutic Musculoskeletal Supplement
Rapid loss of muscle mass and strength is seen following injury. This is further compounded by the stress of surgery.
XR™ is a targeted amino acid supplement formulated with clinically studied ingredients at optimal effective doses in preserving skeletal muscle during the catabolic state of injury and surgery.
Carbohydrate Loading
Carbohydrate loading is a modern alternative to preoperative fasting (NPO) protocols utilizing an anesthesia approved maltodextrin formulation. This approach prepares patients for the metabolic demands of surgery by providing a sustained energy source and placing patients in a metabolically nourished state. Similar to an athlete preparing for a competitive event, the goal of carbohydrate loading is to be optimally fueled to face the metabolic stress of surgery.
Xcelerated Recovery®
Comprehensive Nutritional Optimization for Patients Recovering from Surgery.
Substantial Skeletal Muscle Loss Occurs After Surgery with The most muscle atrophy is seen during the initial 2 weeks post-op. Decreased mobilization leads to further muscle atrophy: 0.5% /day in young 1.0% /day in elderly. This catabolic state requires elevated (~80%) demands for essential amino acids [EAA]. EAAs serve as the necessary building blocks for collagen, bone and Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS). Without adequate nutritional support, the body harvests its only reserve (skeletal muscle) to provide these critical substrates for tissue healing.
Each ingredient has been clinically researched for optimal effective dosing. Utilizing targeted amino acid supplementation provides essential substrates for tissue repair during recovery with evidence-backed benefits in mitigating muscle loss, reducing complications, and improving overall outcomes.
