Step 6

If your patient is deep chested and the waist is too loose, open the zipper from the back, adjust the elastic band using the button.

Step 7

If your patient does not need the neck feature, remove the padding.

Step 8

Check the adjustment of the neck. Make sure you can fit 2 fingers in, so it’s not too tight.

Step 9

If your patient is male and does not need protection in the penis area, cut through the seam or create an opening within the marked circle.

If your patient is female and the vulva does not need protection, cut out the protective sleeve.

Step 11

If your patient needs to use drains, cut inside the circle on either side, to pass the drain or tubes through.

Use the loops to attach tubes and drains.

Other Customizations

If the sleeves are too long, you may roll them up or trim them for a better fit. For a cleaner finish when creating a short-sleeve style, cut just below the short-sleeve feature.
