Game Ready Hand/Wrist Cold Therapy & Compression System Rental

The Game Ready Hand/Wrist rental is commonly used after hand, wrist, thumb or forearm surgery and injury where cold therapy and compression have been recommended. It may be used after carpal tunnel release, distal radius fracture surgery, tendon repair, trigger finger release, trapeziectomy, wrist sprains and other hand or wrist conditions.

Game Ready provides circulating cold water and intermittent pneumatic compression through a hand/wrist wrap, which can offer more consistent treatment than a standard ice pack. Many patients choose it after surgery because it combines cold therapy and compression in one system.

When filled with ice and water, the Game Ready system provides cold therapy in an approximate range of 35°F to 50°F. The temperature can be adjusted using the control unit.

Game Ready offers no compression, low, medium and high compression settings. The correct setting depends on comfort, surgical instructions, swelling level and any medical precautions. Follow your healthcare provider’s guidance.

Only use high compression if your healthcare provider has recommended it. Some patients should use lower compression or cold therapy only, especially immediately after surgery or if they have circulation, nerve, skin or wound concerns.

Treatment frequency depends on your procedure, swelling, pain level and your surgeon’s or hand therapist’s instructions. Follow the treatment plan provided by your healthcare team rather than using a generic schedule.

No. Do not place the hand/wrist wrap directly over open wounds, stitches, sores, rashes or infected areas. Follow your surgeon’s wound care and dressing instructions before using cold compression therapy.

Yes. A light barrier between the wrap and skin is recommended. Monitor your skin during use and stop treatment if you notice burning, itching, increased pain, blistering, redness, discoloration or other skin changes.

Use extra caution if you have numbness, neuropathy, reduced temperature sensation or circulation concerns. Speak with your healthcare provider before using cold compression therapy, as you may not feel excessive cold or pressure normally.

Follow your surgeon’s or hand therapist’s instructions. In some cases, cold compression therapy may be used with dressings, splints or braces removed or adjusted, but this depends on your procedure and post-operative precautions.
