LimbO Children's Half Arm Plaster Cast and Dressing Protector

While wearing a cast, dressing or brace, it's vital that your child can go about your day with minimal disruption. However, bathing and showering can present a serious issue as casts and dressings need to be kept dry at all times. The LimbO Half Arm Plaster Cast and Dressing Protector features an innovative durable waterproof protector, designed to keep your child's dressing or brace dry while bathing and showering. 

Key Features of the LimbO Half Arm Cast Protector

The key features and benefits of the LimbO Half Arm Cast Protector are:

• Fully waterproof to protect casts and braces from water damage
• Enables your child to bathe and shower while wearing your cast – improves quality of life
• Comfortable seal prevents water from entering without feeling too tight
• Designed to last throughout your child's recovery period for greater value for money

Secure and Self-Sealing

The LimbO cast protector is a self-sealing, self-supporting garment which prevents the infiltration of water to plaster casts and wound dressings on arms during bathing. This enables your child to bathe and shower confidently without having to worry about their cast becoming damaged.

Comfortable to Wear

Despite providing a waterproof seal, the LimbO has been developed to ensure that its seal isn't too tight. This ensures that your child's arm is comfortable and unrestricted while they bathe or shower.

Guidelines for Use

To help your child get the most from your LimbO Half Arm Cast Protector, it is recommended that they follow these guidelines for use:

• Check that the rubber seal remains undamaged before using. Carefully follow the fitting instructions for the LimbO to ensure that it is watertight
• Your child is then free to enjoy their shower or bath safe in the knowledge that their wound or plaster will remain dry. The LimbO should not be worn for more than 20 to 30 minutes at a time, as the trapped air gets quite warm and can cause condensation
• After use, follow the simple guidelines in the fitting instructions to ensure that the LimbO will last through your child's duration of treatment

The LimbO can be used in baths and showers, however it should not be used when swimming.

Sizing for the LimbO Child Half Arm Cast Protector

Please consult the Sizing tab above to find the right size LimbO for your child.

Sizing for the LimbO Child Half Arm Plaster Cast Protector 

To help you find the right size LimbO cast protector for your child, follow the following instructions:

1. Find the size most suitable for your child's age on the table below
2. Measure the length of the LimbO up your child's arm to determine where the Arm Circumference should be measured
3. At this point up the arm, measure the circumference of the arm and check it against the LimbO's Arm Circumference
4. To ensure a perfect fit, measure the circumference of the cast at its thickest point and ensure it is less that the Maximum Cast Circumference

If all measurements are within the correct parameters, then it's the right LimbO Child Half Arm Cast Protector for your child. However, as all children are different sizes at different ages, your child's arm may fit into a different age bracket sizing, even if that does not match their age.
