PhysioStim Device Model 5313
PhysioStim device model 5313 may be placed on the collarbone (clavicle) or
larger limb such as the thigh (femur). Model 5313 may be worn over clothing,
bracing or over a cast or external fixation device if present. Proper treatment

centered around the fracture site to be effective. User can gently bend and
shape the treatment coils to fit more comfortably around the body.

clavicle placement. If being placed on a larger limb such as the thigh (femur),
an accessory strap is available to ensure a comfortable fit.
