The thumb loop can be adjusted to size.\u003cbr\u003e\nTake the Shoulder Strap from the wrist area over the unaffected shoulder, across the back and down through the plastic D-Ring next to the elbow, adjusting to size.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlace the Abductor Pillow under the Sling so it is held in position by the Hook \u0026amp; Loop Tape fastening. The surgeon will decide if the bulbous end is to be in front or beside the chest.\u003cbr\u003e\nUse the Waist Strap Positioning Stick to gently slide the Waist Strap under the small of the Patient’s back to secure the Sling around the Patient’s waist. The Hook Tape should be on the outside. The wrist section can be opened for inspection by undoing one of the Hook \u0026amp; Loop tags. If the Patient does not need to support their wrist, the front section can be folded back.\u003cbr\u003e\nIf you notice any reactions such as swelling or pain, immediately contact your medical adviser.\u003cbr\u003e\nALTERNATIVE OR RELATED PRODUCTS\u003cbr\u003e\nArm Holder\u003cbr\u003e\nArm Elevation Sleep Cushion\u003cbr\u003e\nArm Rest – 30 Degrees\u003cbr\u003e\nArm Sling \u0026amp; Swathe\u003cbr\u003e\nElbow \u0026amp; Wrist Sling\u003cbr\u003e\nElbow \u0026amp; Wrist Showering Sling\u003cbr\u003e\nElbow \u0026amp; Wrist Showering Sling Webbing\u003cbr\u003e\nLeg\/Arm Sling – Heat Sealed\u003cbr\u003e\nLeg\/Arm Sling Bariatric\u003cbr\u003e\nShoulder Abductor\u003cbr\u003e\nShoulder Cuff Kit\u003cbr\u003e\nUpper Arm Adductor\u003cbr\u003e\nVertical Arm Sling\u003cbr\u003e\nAll of our Arm Sling products can be found\u003cbr\u003e\nhere\u003cbr\u003e\n.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eItem # 6050\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pelican","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":50241991606584,"sku":"6050","price":160.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/8801\/8488\/files\/arm-sling-abductor-pillow.jpg?v=1747623289","url":"https:\/\/suppliers.bettercaremarket.com.au\/products\/arm-sling-abductor-pillow","provider":"bettercaremarket","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
