Carpal Glove Orthosis (CGO-II) - Fitting Instructions

Step 2: Adjusting the straps of your CGO-II
Once you have your new CGO-II on your hand as shown in step one, you need to adjust each strap in the following manner:
  • Strap 1 should be comfortable but firm
  • Strap 2 should be "snug" to comfort. This strap engages the spring and needs to be the tightest of the three straps. To test proper tightness you should be able to slip your index finger between the strap and the skin
  • Strap 3 should be comfortable but firm
When you complete Step 2, your CGO-II should appear as below.

NOTE!
Lift up on the Velcro closure seen in this picture to release Strap 2 completely for adjusting. Once Strap2 is adjusted, press the Velcro closure back over Strap 2 to hold it snugly in place.
