Optional – inserting the pad:
A pad is also available in addition to the brace and can be ordered as a ser
vice part if necessary.
► Optional – inserting the pad: Use the hook and loop closure to attach
the pad to the inside of the brace so that it is at least 1 cm above the seat
surface when seated.
Fitting and application
1) Application (see fig. 1): Place the brace around the trunk. Place the fin
gers in the hand straps of the abdominal closure. Apply equal force to
both sides to pull the brace forward.
2) Hook-and-loop material (see fig. 2): Attach the right part to the top of
the left part of the abdominal closure. Remove the fingers from the left
and then from the right hand strap. Make sure that the hook and loop
surfaces are closed evenly against each other and are not in contact with
clothing or skin.
Final steps
1) Final inspection: Verify the correct fit and proper positioning of the
brace during handover to the patient. The brace is positioned correctly
when the lower edge of the brace extends just below the groin.
2) Instruct the patient: Explain to the patient how to apply the brace and
ensure that it is positioned correctly. Practice the application and
removal of the brace with the patient.
