Video Transcription

Video Summary

To determine the appropriate back brace size, measure the waist circumference 2 inches above the largest part. Remove the brace from its bag, open it, and use the included tape measure to match the patient’s measurement on both sides. Extend and lock the BOA tensioning reels. Position the brace around the patient's waist, aligning it with their spine and abdomen. Secure the brace with Velcro, adjust the BOA reels for a snug fit, and ensure comfort. To remove, release the tensioning reels and pull the brace off using the abdominal mitt.
