Patient Restraints: Non-Locking Twice-As-Tough Cuffs (Buckle Closure)

Posey® Twice-As-Tough® Cuffs (Non-Locking) are designed to limit the movement of wrists and/or ankles in patients assessed to be at risk of disrupting life-saving treatment, pulling lines/tubes, exacerbating skin conditions, compromising wound site integrity, or self-injury. They are used in medical (NVNSD) and behavioral health (VSD) treatments.

These heavy-duty restraint cuffs are gentle on skin and can be used for the patient’s wrists and/or ankles. Neoprene fabric, nylon straps, and reinforced stitching provide extra strength* and durability.

All Twice-As-Tough Cuffs on this page use a quick-release buckle to secure the patient cuff:

  • Intuitive, plastic two-point press buckle
  • Fast cuff application and release
  • Adjustable cuff circumference

Each Twice-As-Tough Cuffs restraint on this page features one of the following anchor strap configurations:

  • Single strap for simple application and adjustment
  • Double strap allows you to decrease patient movement by attaching two straps at different anchor points on a bed/stretcher (i.e., triangulation) or enhance security by attaching two straps at the same anchor point on a bed/stretcher

 

The straps for the Twice-As-Tough Cuffs on this page come in either one or two pieces:

  • One-piece straps provide a direct connection from the patient cuff to the anchor point
  • Two-piece straps provide an intermediary connection within the strap that allows you to move the patient without disconnecting the cuff
