Application Instructions for Wrist and Ankle
DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCT: Padded limb restraints with double-security
closure. For stretcher application only.
INTENDED USE:
• Patients assessed to be at risk of disrupting life-saving treatments
(e.g., chronic tube pulling) or in danger of injury to themselves or to others.
• Follow your hospital's restraint policies and procedures which are in
compliance with USA CMS guidelines and state laws, or other governing
agencies outside the USA.
CONTRAINDICATIONS:
Do not use this device with someone who has continued highly aggressive or
combative behavior, self-destructive behavior, or deemed to be an immediate
risk to others or to self. Clinicians may need to use additional interventions in
conjunction with restraints.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Follow these steps to apply device (repeat steps 1-4 on each side):
1. Place restraint on the stretcher at both the wrist position and ankle position
of the stretcher.
2. Bring the ends of the straps down through the inside of the side rails so
they do not interfere with the movement of the side rails. Thread the end
of one strap over the top, around the frame, and
first attach the black hook-and-loop together then
the blue or red hook-and-loop together (Fig. 1).
Be sure to overlap at least one inch (3 cm).
3. Tug the restraint to confirm it is secure to the stretcher.
4. Position the patient on the stretcher.
APPLYING THE CUFFS:
(Repeat steps 1-2 for each side):
1. Wrap the neoprene piece around the wrist/ ankle so the buckle and connecting
strap is on the ulnar side of the wrist or lateral malleolus of the ankle. Attach the
black hook-and-loop pieces together and pull back the
black pull tab on the blue or red fuzzy piece, followed by
the blue or red hook-and-loop pieces. The fuzzy piece
should be sandwiched between the two pieces of hook
(Fig. 2). Be sure to overlap at least one inch (3 cm).
2. Press the hook-and-loop closure together firmly and
make sure it adheres securely. Slide ONE finger (flat) between the cuff and the
inside of the patient's wrist/ankle to ensure proper fit.

PRECAUTIONS:
• A clinical assessment and decision are required when used with monitoring
lines or if patient has a wound or dislocated/fractured limb.
• Check the patient regularly to ensure that circulation is not impaired. Serious
injury may occur if the cuffs restricts circulation when the limb holder is applied.
• Before each use, check cuffs and straps for cracks, tears, and/or excessive wear
or stretch, broken buckles or locks, and/or that hook-andloop adheres securely
as these may allow patient to remove cuff. Discard if device is damaged or if
unable to lock.
• WARNING: Additional or different body or limb restraints may be needed
(visit tidiproducts.com):
— If the patient pulls violently against the bed straps.
— To reduce the risk of the patient getting access to the line/wound/tube site.
— To prevent the patient from flailing or bucking up and down and causing
self-injury.
