Specifications:
The Premium Woven Rib Belts can provide support and compression to the rib cage weakened by strain. Rib belts help stabilize rib and sternum fractures by limiting expansion through compression. They also provide comfort and encourage more controlled breathing.
Features:
True Woven Elastic - Gives firm and consistent compression power and can be cut without unraveling to accommodate drainage tubes.
Paneled Hinged Stitch - Creates separate panels for a more conforming, tapered fit with flexibility. Does not pinch the skin.
Hook Compatible Exterior - Allows for a wider range of adjustability and easy application. Holds up through repeated use.
Latex Free and Plush Lining - Comfortable and non-irritating for patients and caregivers with sensitivity to latex rubber.
Female Rib Belt has a Tapered Design to accommodate the bust line.
How to Apply:
Individual Application: Apply in a standing or laying position. Open belt to its fullest length with the care tag on the inside. Position the rib belt around the rib cage. The hook should be on the right. Stretch both sides and wrap the sides without the hook around the body first. Secure the hook onto the support where needed. Adjust as necessary.
Caregiver Application: With patient lying flat on his/her back in bed, open the binder to its fullest length, positioning it underneath the patient with the plush side against the patient's skin. Position the rib belt around the rib cage. The hook should be on the right side of the patient. Stretch the left side of the belt and pull it across the patient's ribs, using the weight of the patient to hold it in place. Holding the left side in place on the patient's ribs, stretch the right side the same way securing to the loop. Adjust as necessary.
Care Instructions:
Fasten closure and hand wash in cold water with mild soap.
Wrap in towel to remove excess water (do not twist or wring).
Air dry away from heat. Do not tumble dry. Do not bleach.
