A strap strip is installed on the top surface of the restraint vest, and the securing strap is slidably installed inside this strap strip. By using the positioning straps, the securing strap is inserted into the strap strip, and the female and male buckles at both ends of the securing strap engage and securely fasten, reinforcing the top of the restraint vest and preventing it from coming loose when worn.

[0012] (3) Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This invention utilizes a slit design to open one side of the restraint vest, allowing it to be slipped on from the patient's side. It is then secured using first, second, and final Velcro straps. Next, the positioning strap extends to both sides of the bed and is secured with straps, effectively restraining the patient's body. This allows for quick and easy donning of the restraint vest. The patient's wrist is then placed around the napped fabric loop and secured with a third Velcro strap, further restraining the wrist. Lifting the lifting rod raises the mounting base and positioning pin, pulling the positioning pin out of the positioning strap and compressing the spring. Pulling the C-shaped slider moves the slip ring and napped fabric loop along the positioning strap, adjusting the distance between the loop and the restraint vest to accommodate patients with different arm lengths and to adjust the tension of the restrained arm, allowing for a certain range of motion and improving patient comfort. This effectively prevents unplanned tube removal or falls from the bed. After adjustment, releasing the lifting rod lowers the mounting base and positioning pin under spring force, allowing the positioning pin to insert into the positioning strap for fixation.
