WARNING
• A physician or properly licensed practitioner (a
“prescriber”) who is familiar with the use and
purpose of this brace must fit it to the user.
The prescriber has a duty to provide wearing
instructions and risks related to the use of this
brace to other healthcare practitioners treating the
users and the users themselves, including duration
of use. The instructions provided in this sheet do
not supersede hospital protocol or direct orders of
the prescriber. Use only as directed.
• Prolonged usage can result in muscle atrophy in
the user. The user may require (1) a weaning period
from the brace to build muscle strength (2) regular
physical therapy exercises to maintain the strength
of the back (3) a limitation on duration of use, or (4)
some combination of these.
• Inspect brace for damaged or missing components
before use.
• Discontinue use and consult your prescriber if
the brace or its components break or become
damaged.
• Inspect the fit of the brace on the patient to ensure
fit is proper. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Check
regularly to ensure circulation and breathing are
not compromised.
• Consult your prescriber immediately if you
experience sensation changes, unusual reactions,
swelling or increased pain while using this brace.
Discontinue use if pressure injuries develop.
• Wear clothing underneath this brace.
• Take special care if the user is diabetic or has poor
circulation as these users may have decreased
skin sensitivity and are at greater risk for poor
peripheral circulation and pressure injuries.

slip on the back support with
suspension straps (if used)
