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 Pav-
lik 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 Ban-
dage 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 centimetres 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.
