Caution: The Nox disposable RIP belts should fit the patient snugly without being
uncomfortably tight to avoid discomfort.
Note: For most patients, the Nox disposable RIP belts do not need to be adjusted if
the correct belt size is chosen based on the patient’s abdomen circumference
and/or body mass index (BMI). Belt size selection tables accompany Nox
disposable RIP belts packages for more detailed instruction.
Fit the Nox disposable RIP belts around the patient’s waist and thorax and adjust the length using the
loop on each end to adjust the belt length such that the belt covers about two thirds of the patient’s
circumference when the belt is unstretched. The length is fixed with hooks on the plastic connector of
the belt.
