Instructions of Use:
- Select the appropriate size of the kit based on the patient’s age: adult or child.
- Prepare the 3 layered foam fabric by cutting it into a suitable shape to cover the foot and lower leg area.
- Ensure the patient’s foot is clean and dry before applying the adhesive side of the foam fabric directly to the skin. Position the foam fabric to cover the entire foot and extend up the lower leg.
- Use the cotton tape to secure the foam fabric in place, wrapping it snugly around the leg but not too tight to impede circulation.
- Attach one end of the string to the foam fabric and the other end to the traction weight, which is based on the prescribed traction force.
- Ensure the traction weight is securely attached and that it is freely suspended without any obstructions.
- Regularly check the patient’s comfort level and ensure proper circulation to the foot during traction therapy. Adjust the traction force as directed by a healthcare professional.
- Monitor the patient during the traction therapy session and make any necessary adjustments to maintain the desired traction force and proper alignment.
- Follow the prescribed duration and frequency of traction therapy sessions as recommended by a healthcare professional.
- After the therapy session, carefully remove the foam fabric, string, and cotton tape from the foot and leg. Gently peel off the adhesive side of the foam fabric from the skin, taking care not to cause any discomfort or skin irritation.
- Dispose of the used foam fabric and ensure proper hygiene for future use.
- Store the Foot/Skin Traction Kit in a clean and dry place, ensuring all components are properly secured for future use.
Note: The Foot/Skin Traction Kit (Adhesive) should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. It is essential to follow the instructions and recommendations provided by a healthcare professional for safe and effective traction therapy.
