f Begin by taking a measurement of the circumference of the patient approximately 1" (2.5 cm) superior to the trochanters or
widest part of the hips.
f Match the patient's size to the Sizing Chart below.
f Prior to applying the brace, make sure the support panels are separated by detaching the Pull Tab from the Belt Wings a pulling the
Posterior (Rear) Panel Section in opposite directions
f Attach the hook portion of the Posterior (Rear) Panel Section to the Belt Wings so the overall length
approximately 10" (26 cm) greater than the patient circumference
f NOTE: The Pull Tab may be oriented on either the right or left hand side of the patient, however the Belt Wing with the hook should
be secured on the opposite side of the Pull Tab and so the hook is at the distal end of the Belt Wing.
BELT PADS (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
f Slide Belt Wing through the elastic strap on the Belt Pad ensuring the anti-slip material is facing the patient and is oriented
horizonatally along the Belt Wing.
