Application/Adjustment

1. Fitting the Chest Section
1.1 Before initial use, the five buckles
on the chest, shoulder and front
leg belts should be opened. Lay the
Pavlik Bandage open and stretched
out on a suitable base (a nappy-
changing table). The child should
be positioned on its back, lying on
the Pavlik Bandage so that the
chest strap can be closed in a
circular manner, a finger's width
under the armpits whilst still
above the nipples.
1.1
1.2
The shoulder straps should be crossed
across the back so that the bandage
does not slip over the shoulders.

2. Fitting the Leg Section
2.1
The leg straps are placed so that
the longitudinal straps run parallel
down both sides of the calves and
over the inner and outer ankle. The
belt part running underneath the
foot must be positioned some cen-
timetres in front of the rear edge
of the heel, in the direction of the
centre of the foot.
2.1
2.2 The leg straps running down the
inner side are attached to the chest
strap, so that a spreading of the
upper thigh within the hip joints is
possible to a degree of between 50°
and 55° per leg.
