Directions for Use

Measuring

If the circumference at the desired occlusion location is not within 22-32 cm, use another appropriate HemaClear® Model.
If the patient’s foot is larger than 29 cm (shoe size 14 or larger USA, or 47 or larger in Europe) use HemaClear® Large (Orange or Brown) at the same lower leg location specified for Model A™.

Applying

Placing

The recommended placement location on the lower leg is from 5-15 cm (2-6’’) above the lateral malleolus.

Placing

Insert the tips of the toes into the oval opening of the device application cup with the handles facing away from the patient. Verify that all toes are inserted. Grab the handles firmly and pull them proximally towards the patient, along the axis of the foot. Use the bottom handle to pull HemaClear® over the heel. Roll the device on the lower leg until it reaches the desired occlusion location.
The device will not roll beyond 50 cm (20’’) from the tips of the toes. If a more proximal position is required, use an alternative HemaClear® Model (HemaClear® Large or HemaClear® Extra-Large).
