Application Instructions for Wrist and Ankle
DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCT: Padded limb restraints with double-security
closure. For bed 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
conjuction with restraints.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
CAUTION: Posey Keys MUST be readily available to staff at all times. In an
emergency, it is difficult to cut the cuffs with scissors to free the patient. Follow
these steps to apply device (repeat steps 1-4 on each side):
1. Place the cuffs at wrist or ankle position.
2. Bring the ends of the strap down through the inside of the side rails so they
do not interfere when the side rails are raised. Thread the end of the strap
over the top, around the frame, and through the lock.
Make sure that the straps are attached to the frame that
moves with the patient (Fig. 1) (do not attach to side rail
or head/footboard), out of the patient's reach.
3. Pull the strap snug and close the lock. Check that the
lock "clicks" shut. If a lock is not completely closed, it can pop open. Before
leaving the patient's side, test the lock by trying to open it without the key.
4. Position the patient on the bed.
APPLYING THE CUFFS: (Repeat steps 1-2 for each side):
1. Wrap the neoprene piece around 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.
3. 2794: Pass the end of the limb strap over the top of the
cuff and through the two D-rings on the cuff. Bring the
strap back over the first ring and through the two D-rings
on the cuff (Fig. 3). Slide one finger (flat) between the
cuff and limb strap.
