  • Gentle restraint for in-bed patient
    Patent number: 5027456
    Abstract: A gentle restraint for use in inhibiting a person from leaving a bed, either accidentally or intentionally. The restraining forces are provided by a resilient covering which yields and stretches in accord with the movements and position of a person lying in the bed under the restraint. The yieldable restraint is provided by a resilient, open mesh covering which permits the free passage of air and water vapor and therefore does not entrap heat about the body of the person restrained.
