Important!
Serious injury or choking can occur if the forehead strap is not
properly used. Anyone using the dynamic forehead strap - the user
and the carer/therapist - needs to be instructed about its proper
use.
Keep a close eye on the user when the system is being used.
The tension is regulated by means of cord locks which are
located on either side of the system. The tension should not be
too tight as to cause a reddening of the forehead from excess
pressure. Neither should the strap be too loose so that it can drop
down over the eyes, nose or chin!
Discontinue using the system immediately if the the user
experiences discomfort, slipping, redness or irritation.
Anyone involved in the use of the system should be trained in its
use.
Seek out expert help - usually an experienced therapist or supplier
- if any adaptations to the system are necessary.
