The G-Cuffs are a positioning aid, generally prescribed by a Health Professional for people who need assistance to sleep symmetrically in bed. 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.

Additional Information
G-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, 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, while 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.
