DIRECTIONS FOR USE
ADJUSTABLE BREAST COMFORT (ABC) SYSTEM USE
CAUTION
ABC System Weight Limit - 100 lbs. (45 kg.) Do not sit on the ABC System. Do
not place foreign objects into the ABC System. Only use as intended.
For safety
of your client, use a cloth sheet between the ABC System and your client.
SUPINE POSITIONING
When turning clients over to supine, you
may use the cushion to level after or
during their change of position. IT is not
important that the cushion be completely
level. As in prone positions, make small
changes in height and check in with the
client.
PRONE POSITIONING
In Prone positions, for male or female
clients when the face rest is in use, lower
the cushion approximately 3/4” at a time
(This is approximately 1 second of lower-
ing) and check in with the client regard-
ing their comfort right after making the
change. Incrementally lower the cushion
until the client reports they are comfort-
able. Sometimes going back up a little will
be preferred. This whole process takes no
more than 15-20 seconds. After lowering,
check headrest position to ensure comfort
& support. Once a client’s preferences are
known, the cushion can be brought to that
level before they are on the table.
NOTE:
Breast size is not the only determinate of
cushion location. Every person’s comfort
spot is different, regardless of breast size.
HEAD REST USE IN SUPINE
If you are using the head rest in the
Supine position, you may use the cush-
ion at relatively high heights to facilitate
stretching for short periods of time. It is not
recommended that clients experience this
position for more than a few minutes.
The O
akworks
®
Adjustable Breast Comfort (ABC) System is designed to lower the pressure on breasts and pectoral
muscles, allowing the client to relax and create a more comfortable position for their spine. The height of the cushion is
easily adjusted up and down in small increments by using the hand control. We recommend that the cushion height be
adjusted in the following ways:
*Always start with the cushion top level with the top of the table for Prone or Supine Positioning*
