WARNINGS
• Follow the recommendations of your health care practitioner regarding the
frequency and duration of use.
• Improper placement or prolonged use of the Game Ready System or Med4 Elite
System could result in tissue damage. During the course of therapy, patients
should monitor the skin surrounding the treated region or the digits of the
extremities of the treated limb for any burning, itching, increased swelling, or
pain. If any of these signs present, or any changes in skin appearance occur (such
as blisters, increased redness, discoloration, or other noticeable skin changes),
patients are advised to discontinue use and consult a physician.
• Game Ready Wraps are not sterile; do not place directly against open wounds,
sores, rashes, infections, or stitches. The Wrap may be applied over clothing or
dressing. A layer between Wrap and skin is recommended for all patients.
• Game Ready Wraps are available in multiple configurations but are not intended for
all possible physiologic uses. For example, the Ankle Wrap is not designed for use
on the toes and the Back Wrap is not designed for use in the abdominal region.
• To avoid potential damage to the Control Unit, do not use other manufacturers'
Wraps with the Control Unit.
• Use extra caution during the immediate postoperative period, especially when
sedated or on any medication that could alter normal pain sensation. Check the
skin of the treated region frequently and use mid-to-higher (warmer) temperature
range settings or leave more time between treatments, if necessary.
• Monitor the level of heat throughout treatment session. Caution should be
used with the Med4 Elite System or any thermotherapy (Heat Therapy) device
generating high intensity heat at 113°F or above. Check the skin of the treated
region frequently and use mid-to-lower (cooler) temperature range settings or
leave more time between treatments, if necessary.
• The Med4 Elite System is not intended for use with numbing agents.
FLEXED ELBOW WRAP APPLICATION
NOTE: The same procedure may be used to apply
the Wrap on either the Left or Right elbow.
• When using heat and rapid contrast therapy, skin should be protected in heat-
• Heating of the gonads should be avoided.
NOTES
Apply Wrap with a uniformly close fit, ensuring there are no kinks which may impede
water flow. Ensure connector hose is placed to prevent the Wrap from folding or
kinking at the hose inlet location of the Wrap.
