The CM Hernia Belt is highly regarded worldwide as the best product for post abdominal surgery healing in horses.
They are manufactured in California by CM Equine and imported into Africa for sale and hire by us.
The Belt is constructed using a brushed cotton for easy cleaning and velcro and canvas straps to provide constant support and an effective pressure bandage along the required length of the abdomen.
This pressure bandage assumes the supporting role of the abdominal muscles reducing the risk of wound dehiscence by relieving stitch tension on the wound. In addition, the CM Hernia Belt allows complete occlusion of the wound allowing it to be kept free of environmental contaminants.
Anti-septic dressings are easily applied and held in place by the belt.
If used properly, under the supervision of your vet, the pressure bandage can aid in the prevention of hernias that could form subsequent to abdominal surgery in addition to expediting the overall healing process.
