Strap type affects both the security and flexibility of restraint mitts and limb restraints. Common strap types include single straps, double straps, and slide harnesses. Double connecting straps provide more effective movement limitation than single straps, while slide harnesses allow for some natural limb rotation to minimize chafing. The choice of strap type should be guided by the desired balance between restraint security and patient mobility. The Medline Economy Patient Safety Limb Holders feature double connecting straps and a slide harness, offering both strong restraint and enhanced comfort by allowing wrist rotation. With various strap types available, it’s easy to find an option that matches your specific safety and patient care requirements.
