Wrist restraints are only used under physician orders and must be assessed and re-adjusted on a set schedule. Ergonomically, restraints must never interfere with natural joint positioning. If a restraint places a limb or specific joint into an unnatural position, then pillows, towels, or other soft supports must be used to place the joint back into a natural position. For example, the hand may need to be raised by placing it on a folded towel.
* Always make sure restraints are not tight enough to restrict blood flow.
