Video Summary
This video demonstrates how to properly use an arm sling. The process involves removing the sling from packaging, having the patient insert their arm into the sling with the elbow firmly in the back area. The shoulder strap is then placed across the opposing shoulder, and the patient holds the clip and buckle. The strap is fed through the bottom of the clip and buckle, and then through the top. The tightness is adjusted by pulling the strap to slightly elevate the arm. It is important to examine the brace to ensure proper positioning.
