Restraint Straps: Choosing the Equipment Attachment
Use the approved structural attachment point, keep straps away from moving parts, and leave both releases reachable.
On this page
The cuff fits around the limb; the long ties attach it to equipment. Both need to follow the healthcare professional’s instructions.
Use the approved structural attachment point, clear of sharp edges and moving parts, and keep the release within reach.
Start With the Attachment Route
Choose the structural attachment point specified for the equipment and care arrangement. Check that it remains stable when the wearer changes position.
Avoid Sharp Edges and Moving Parts
Straps should not rub against sharp metal, hinges, wheels, moving chair parts, or hard-to-reach areas. Rubbing can change tension and wear the strap faster.
Keep Release Access Clear
Position the cuff closure and attachment release where the caregiver can see and reach them. Include that access when planning the full tie route.
Cuff Closure and Equipment Attachment
The PSNOOK set includes four padded cuffs with two long ties per cuff. A rectangular metal loop handles the fold-back cuff closure; the long ties handle equipment attachment separately.
Care Note
A qualified healthcare professional must decide whether restraint is needed and whether this model is suitable. If approved, use it only with the specified supervision, checks, and release instructions. Never use it for punishment, convenience, or unattended restraint. Do not choose these straps for forceful struggling or acute violence management.
