Restraints may be necessary to protect disoriented or uncooperative elderly patients from injuries by themselves in some specific situations, so caregivers can safely provide immediate and necessary care. Physical restraints are devices that limit specific parts of the patient's body, such as arms, by fabric belts or vests to stop the patient from getting out of bed or wheelchair. Some injuries may happen by inappropriate use or without monitoring. The SS restraint is designed to restrain patients with more dignity and less discomfort, monitor patient??s vital signs, and provide alerts for caregivers.
