A security restraining blanket includes a main flexible flat pad adapted to be secured to a support structure, such as a bed, cart or table, so as to extend across a surface of the structure, and a restraining section adapted to be fastened in a tubular configuration about the torso of a person and attached to the main pad for restraining the person's torso in a desired position on the main pad. Preferably, the restraining section is detachably attached to the main pad by one or more fasteners, such as zippers. Releasable arm restraint straps are provided on the main pad and on the restraining section for securement about the arms of the person to restrain the person's arms in desired positions on the main pad or to the restraining section. The arm straps on the main pad are oriented at about forty-five degrees to the person's torso to restrain the person's arm in a more comfortable position than when the arms are restrained in parallel relation against the sides of the person's torso. Also, releasable fastening straps and segments are provided on the restraining section for securing its opposite ends about the person' s torso. Free ends of the straps contain patches of complementary fastening material, such as pile and hook material, for attaching the strap ends together.
A crib safety sacklike device is provided, having one open end adapted to removably contain a mattress or the like. A blanket is sewn along its midline to the center of the sacklike device, defining two blanket halves. Mating strips of hook and loop fastening material are attached to the two halves of the blanket, so that an infant may be placed on the blanket with the two halves of the blanket wrapped around the infant and fastened to retain the infant in a supine position.
A protective wrap for the legs of animals to prevent insects or sticker type plants from contacting such wrapped legs. The wrap is made up of a mesh-type material which keeps the insects off while allowing free air circulation. The mesh material is bordered by plush or a smooth material to prevent cutting or abrasion of the leg and to prevent insects from crawling under the wrap. The panel may be reinforced or strengthened by the addition of a foam layer between the binding and mesh panel or by adding a diagonal stripe of stiff material. The wrap is fastened by overlapped portions of a loop and hook-type fastener.
A novel restraining device for immobilizing a preselected portion of a prostrate human body when disposed on a body support platform or board having attachment locations has first and second panel sections which are detachably interconnectable in overlapping and variably adjustable relationship. Each panel section has extending therefrom adjustable attachment means, such as a pair of adjustable straps, which secure the panel section to the attachment locations. There may also be safety retaining means to ensure that the first and second panel sections are maintained in an interconnected relationship.
A restraint for changing an infant (10) has a major band (20) and a restricting band (40). The ends of the major band (20) are adapted to wrap around a surface (11) upon which an infant (13) will be changed and connect to one another. A second band, a restricting band, (40) has two ends (41, 44) and attaches to the top surface of the major band (20). One end (41) of the restricting band (40) may be permanently affixed to the major band (20) while the second end, or free end, (44) of the restricting band (40) attaches to the major band (20) by means of a detachable fastener (46). The points of attachment of the restricting band (40) to the major band (20) define an infant securement area (30) which holds the infant (13) to be changed. Each end of the major band (20) may be split (22, 23) so as to accommodate obstructions associated with a changing surface (11) with which the restraint (10) will be used.
An arm support for supporting a patient's arm(s) during surgical and medical procedures such as angioplasty has an elongated rectangular strip of flexible fabric long enough to pass laterally beneath the supine body of such a patient, with lateral strips of mating fastening means such as VELCRO.RTM. adjacent each end of the strip's upper surface when in use, and two sets of at least two longitudinal strips of mating fastening means positioned on either side of the upper surface of a central portion where the patient's torso is to be positioned, which mate with the latter strips when each end of the fabric strip is looped about the patient's arm(s) for support.
