2. Individual adjustments
For those patients using the
MKS
®
Osteo
for the first time it is important that
they learn how to handle it. Putting it on and taking it off should be practiced.
Wear the
MKS
®
Osteo
directly on the skin or over a tight-fitting singlet without
any creases. It is recommended that an absorbent singlet be worn to avoid
humidity caused by excessive sweating.
To put on the
MKS
®
Osteo
please follow the steps below. This will ensure
reliable effectiveness.
Always make sure that the
MKS
®
Osteo
is a smooth and tight fit. However, in
order to prevent constrictions along the edges it shouldn‘t be over-tightened.
1
Take the ready for use
MKS
®
Osteo

correctly, i.e., flat and without any creases.
