Safety Information for the use of Posey
For RX PRODUCTS ONLY. Federal law (USA) restricts RX devices to sale by
or on order of a physician. For use in a licensed healthcare facility only.
STAFF TRAINING: TIDI offers in-service training aids at no charge. Contact TIDI
online at www.tidiproducts.com or call toll-free at 1.800.447.6739.
BEFORE APPLYING ANY RESTRAINT: Follow your hospital's restraint policies
and procedures that are compliant with USA CMS guidelines and state laws or
other governing agencies outside the USA.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS:
1. ALWAYS monitor patient per facility policy. Improper application or use of
any restraint may result in serious injury or death. Be aware that constant
monitoring may be required for:
• Aggressive or agitated patients; and
• Patients in a supine position; ensure that being in this position would
not cause any complications for those who are at risk of vomiting while
being restrained.
2. NEVER alter or repair this product. ALWAYS Inspect before each use: Check
for broken stitches or parts; torn, cut or frayed material; or locks, buckles, or
hook-and-loop fasteners that do not hold securely. DO NOT use soiled or
damaged products. Doing so may result in serious injury or death. Dispose
of damaged products per facility policy for BIOHAZARDOUS material.
3. ALWAYS secure straps to a part of the frame that
moves with the patient (not foot/head board or
siderails), out of the patients reach, using quick-
release ties (see drawing below) or buckles. These
allow easy release in the event of an accident or fire.
Test to make sure straps cannot tighten, loosen, or slip and create excess
slack. If this occurs, the patient may slide off the chair or bed, increasing
the risk of serious injury or suffocation. Restraint release is an important
part of facility fire and disaster drills. Straps can be cut with scissors in
an emergency.
4. NEVER secure restraint strap to side rail or head/foot board.
5. NEVER use Posey products on toilets, or on any chair or furniture that does
not allow proper application as directed in the Application Instructions.
DO NOT use at home.
6. NEVER expose this product to open flame, fire, smoking materials, or high
heat sources. Some products may melt or ignite and burn. The facility
smoking/no smoking policy should be strictly enforced.
7. NEVER use a Posey product as a seat belt in a moving vehicle. Posey
products are not designed to withstand the force of a crash or sudden stop.
8. Test Zippers or hook-and-loop fasteners before each use. DISCARD device
if it does not fasten securely.

LAUNDERING INSTRUCTIONS (if applicable):
• Fasten all buckles and locks to reduce risk of damage during wash and dry
cycles. DO NOT put buckles or locks through extractors. For maximum life,
launder in a laundry bag.
• Stainless Steel Locks: Posey recommends that locks be treated with a dryfilm
lubricant (silicone) after each cleaning. For best results, spray a small amount
into the lock. Work the action of the lock with a key several times to ensure
that all the surfaces are well lubricated.
• Before laundering, zip up and turn the product inside out to protect zipper.
• Hook-and-loop fasteners may collect lint after repeated use or laundering,
reducing grip strength. Fasten the "hook" to the "loop" before laundering to
help prevent lint buildup. As needed, use a stiff-bristle brush to remove lint
from the "hook" side.
• These products, other than foam products, can
be machine washed under CDC guidelines for
material soiled with blood or bodily fluid.
• For non-contaminated material, use lower temperature wash and dry cycles
to extend product life.
• For foam products:
• Make sure products are completely dry before use.
STORAGE AND HANDLING:
• This device is designed for use in normal indoor environments.
• This device may be stored in ambient warehouse temperatures at normal
humidity levels. Avoid excess moisture or high humidity that may damage
product materials.
HOW TO TIE THE POSEY QUICK-RELEASE TIE

2
1. Wrap strap once around the frame that moves with the patient (do not
attach to side rail or head/footboard), leaving at least an 8" (20 cm) tail.
Fold the loose end in half to create a loop and cross it over the other end.
2. Insert the folded strap where the straps cross over each other, as if tying a
shoelace. Pull on the loop to tighten.
3. Fold the loose end in half to create a second loop.
4. Insert the second loop into the first loop.
5. Pull on the loop to tighten. Test to make sure strap is secure and will not
slide in any direction.
6. Repeat on other side. Practice quick-release ties to ensure the knot
releases with one pull on the loose end of the strap.
DISPOSAL: Dispose of product according to local or facility guidelines if product is
worn or damaged.
