{"product_id":"g-cuffs","title":"G-Cuffs","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe G-Cuffs are a positioning aid, generally prescribed by a Health Professional for people who need assistance to sleep symmetrically in bed. As part of the Pelican Sleep System, the G-Cuffs have Hook Tape sewn to the bottom to attach to either the\u003cbr\u003e\nSleep System Positioning Sheet\u003cbr\u003e\nor\u003cbr\u003e\nMattress Strap\u003cbr\u003e\n(both (sold separately).\u003cbr\u003e\nThese are similar to the\u003cbr\u003e\nE-Wedge\u003cbr\u003e\n(sold separately)\u003cbr\u003e\nand other positioning products. The foam inside the Cuff is convoluted to assist with pressure care and blood flow. The cover is a soft waterproof, breathable fabric that has an internal layer of Thermoregulating Material to help maintain the Patient’s temperature.\u003cbr\u003e\nIf the Patient is moving a lot, some gauze placed around the limb can help prevent shearing or perspiration\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the G-Cuffs\u003cbr\u003e\nG-Cuffs can be used side by side on the ankles or above the knees if the Patient is lying on their back. If the Patient is lying on their side, and providing they are on the Sleep System Positioning Sheet, as the ankles are not side by side, the Cuffs can be placed under each ankle to secure the feet in a more natural position. They can also be used on a wrist or arm to keep it in position. The small size should be suitable for both children and adults. The small size is also suitable for a child’s above-knee abduction. The large size is more suitable for adult above-knee abduction. Securing a Patient above the knee may be more beneficial than securing at the ankle.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo Use\u003cbr\u003e\nPlace the G-Cuffs around the ankles, wrists, or just above the knees. Feed the top foam section into the gap to make a firm fit, then fasten the Hook \u0026amp; Loop Tape sewn on the top to keep the Cuff closed. Next, position the G-Cuffs onto the\u003cbr\u003e\nMattress Strap\u003cbr\u003e\nor\u003cbr\u003e\nSleep System Positioning Sheet\u003cbr\u003e\n. The Cuffs can be placed directly next to each other, or the legs can be separated with each Cuff positioned as required.\u003cbr\u003e\nCompatible or Alternative Products\u003cbr\u003e\nThis product is just one of many ‘Sleep System’ products used for bed positioning support.
