Expanded Pad Care
|
|
| |
The
front and chin pads are removed simply by peeling
them off of the Velcro dots. |
| |
To
remove the back panel pad, first pull the gray loop
straps through the plastic slots. The pad can now
be peeled off of the Velcro dots and slid off of
the loop straps. |
| |
IMPORTANT:
For optimum patient hygiene, pads should be changed
and washed if they become moist or have an odor.
Check pads every 12 hours or according to hospital
protocol. |

Hand
wash pads with mild soap and warm water. Do not
machine wash or use bleach. Rinse thoroughly. |

NOTE:
The plastic shell of the collar may be wiped with
mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and towel
dry before re-attaching pads. |

Squeeze
out excess water by pressing pads with a towel.
Allow to completely air dry by laying on a towel.
Use replacement pads during drying time. Replacement
pads are available from your doctor, local orthotic
and prosthetic facility, or by calling Aspen Medical
Products. |

To
apply the front and chin pads, simply align the
gray side of the pad with the collar plastic. Fold
the pads in half (with the gray side facing out). |
| |
Attach
the pads to the center Velcro dot first, then unfold,
attaching the outer Velcro dots. Be sure the foam
overlaps the exterior margin of the collar plastic
by 1/4" to 1/2". |

To
apply the back panel pad, start by threading the
gray loop straps on the collar (with the Aspen®
logo) through the slits in the pad. |
| |
Be
sure the gray side is facing the collar's hook dots.
Pull the loops tight. |
| |
Thread
through the slots in the plastic. |
