A Safe Care Environment with Bältesspecialisten
Professional equipment makes it possible to carry out restraint procedures safely and humanely, from both a care and safety perspective.
Trygger – A world-class medical restraint system
In institutional care, the use of a restraining belt is a method of treatment used when nothing else works, when the issue is the safety of the patient as well as of others.
It is very important to use good and professional equipment to be able to restrain the patient in the best and most humane way, in regards to medical and safety aspects. This is the foundation and the basis of the design of the belt system ”Trygger”.
Belts and similar devices intended for patient restraint in institutional care are, according to the Swedish Medical Products Agency, considered Medical Devices, and must comply with the requirements of LVFS 2003:11 based on EU directive 93/42/EEG.
Today the belt system TRYGGER is the most frequently used system within institutional psychiatric care in Sweden and is used by several Swedish hospitals, such as St Görans Hospital in Stockholm, Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge, Akademiska Hospital in Uppsala, Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg and Helix in Stockholm (Swedens most secure forensic psychiatric hospital) and many others.
