4. Position Calf Strap
All straps are marked with stickers
which have numbers on them. The
straps of the orthosis should be closed
according to the numbers on the
stickers, in ascending order, from
strap 1 to strap 6.
First, fasten the bottom anterior tibia
strap (no.1), then the top posterior
thigh strap (no.2). Then close the bot-
tom posterior thigh strap (no.3) above
the highest point of the calf muscle.
This helps prevent the orthosis from
shifting out of place. The lenght of the
straps can be adjusted with the hook-
and-loop fasteners on the opposite
side. Now close the anterior thigh
strap (no.6) as shown in fig.4. Please
make sure not to close the orthosis
too tighly so the straps do not disrupt
the blood flow.
Comfort/Hygiene
Do not wear the orthosis on broken
skin. Wear the orthosis over trousers
or thin clothing (e.g. a leggings).
