USING RESTRAINT STRAPS
WARNING
Always use all restraint straps to secure the patient
on the cot. An unrestrained patient may fall from
the cot and be injured.
Always secure the patient on the cot with all of
the restraint straps. Buckle the restraints across
the patient’s chest/shoulders, waist and legs as
shown in Figure 39.1. Keep the restraint straps
buckled when the cot is not being used with a
patient to avoid damage to the buckles and straps.
WARNING
Do not attach restraints to the base or cross
tubes, improper restraint attachment could result in
damage to the cot further resulting in injury to the
patient or operator.
Wrap the strap around the cot frame and back through the loop on the end of the strap as shown in Figures 40.2 and
40.3. The arrows indicate alternate attachment areas.
When attaching the restraint straps to the cot, the attachment points should provide both strong anchorage and proper
restraint position while not interfering with equipment and accessories.
