Safety Straps and Supports

Captions available

The idea

Safety straps and positioning supports keep the patient secure and stable on the operating table.

In practice

Adequate restraints and secure positioning prevent falls, and supports keep the body aligned during the procedure.

Where people slip

Straps are placed so they secure the patient without pressing on nerves or restricting circulation.
