SEAL SIZES (OPENING)
- Measure your limb circumference above your dressings around the fleshy part in centimetres, bear in mind anything over 27 cm we recommend a 40! (30 is very small)
For example: You have measured your forearm to cover your fingers and hand as 30 centimetres, choose a short arm, medium aperture 40 – Code: SA/M/40
You have measured your leg for a long leg to reach to your thigh, the circumference is 70 cm, order a long leg 90 = LL/L/90 which covers 70 to 90 cm circumference.
HOW SHOULD IT LOOK ON MY LIMB?
- A 1 cm seal will form approximately 4 cm above your dressing
- Releasing the air gently via the seal will allow the cover to cling like a second skin
- Do not alter the product with scissors – the seal will not work
