The Ortel C4 Vario must be fitted individually to each patient by qualified experts. At least two people are needed for the first fitting: One to hold the head and neck of the patient in the correct position while the other fits the orthosis.
(1) Place the patient in a neutral position with the head aligned to the centre.
(2) Place the neck part of the orthosis at the centre back of the throat.
(3) Then place the front of the Ortel C4 Vario at the centre of the back part.
(4) Hold the front of the orthosis firmly and place the ends tightly around the patient‘s neck. Fasten the orthosis by alternately tightening the rip tape bands, making sure they are the same length on both sides. If necessary, the surplus at the ends can be cut off with scissors. If the orthosis has been fitted correctly, it should no longer be possible for the chin to slip.
(5) The option of adjusting the angle of the chin ensures optimal pressure distribution and an improved fit to the anatomical conditions. Pull out the buttons for angle adjustment to fine tune the correct chin position. Adjust the chin position and fasten in place by pushing the buttons back in. Please ensure that the same height adjustment is performed on both sides.
