Fitting instructions When delivered, the BORT StabiloPlus bridging brace is pre-set for maximum stabilisation. The bridging frame is attached to the support via the cloth bag, the more rigid version of the splints can be found in the splint bags. A splint set which is more flexible is included in the packaging. The additional abdominal pressure plate is also attached to the support. If required, it can be removed. It serves to increase abdominal counterpressure. EN BORT StabiloPlus Bridging Brace 07 EN Open the support, loosen the side tension straps, place the support around the waist and attach both closing sides using Velcro evenly one above the other with a slight pull of the hand straps. Ensure that the support is placed centrally on the torso and that the lower support edge (antecubital fold on the thigh) ends in the inguinal region. This is the only means to achieve an optimum effect from the BORT StabiloPlus bridging brace. Tighten the two lower belt straps evenly first; as a next step tighten the upper belt straps, enabling a guaranteed comfortable fit of the brace. If overtightened, the support may become wrinkled. During the course of therapy, it may become necessary to reduce the stabilising effect of the BORT StabiloPlus bridging brace. This decision is taken by the treating physician. For this, remove the more rigid version of the splints from the externally attached splint bag by folding the restraints back and removing the splints through the slit in the splint bag. The shorter, more flexible splints can then be inserted. The bridging segment and the abdominal reinforcement plate can also be removed from the support, as required, by loosening the Velcro fastenings and be individually thermoplastically adapted by the orthopaedic technician. 
Removal To remove the brace, open the tension straps and the front fastening and take the brace off.
