Safe Transport Restraining Apparatus Unison System
Safer, more reliable EMS transportation for everyone.
About Strapus
Many traditional straps don’t safely secure the patient, and straps that do can be challenging to use, plus get in the way of the abdomen, chest, and neck
Beyond that, medics often deal with combative patients who struggle due to confusion, substance-related issues, dementia, etc. and in these situations, a patient’s “go to” move is to unbuckle their seat belt. This scenario places EMS professionals in the position of managing a patient’s behavior, rather than focusing on administering the life-saving care the patient needs.
Unfortunately, this means that rather than administering critical patient care at the moment it is needed, medics and the patient often risk safety and treatment until the drugs kick in.
There was no simple answer to solving the issues of combative patients, security, safety, and accessibility until now.
The Safe Transport Restraining Apparatus Unison System (Strapus) Harness is a new patient-restraining system designed for use in all emergency medical transportation scenarios to address the issues listed above.
Innovative shoulder harness
Strapus’ unique design is the only patient-restraining system that allows EMS professionals full unobstructed access to all vital areas of anatomy including the abdomen, chest, and neck so that they can provide the highest quality of care in any situation. Strapus is designed to keep medics and patients safer while improving patient outcomes.
Wireless obstruction technology
Strapus disallows combative patients from easily unbuckling themselves while lifesaving care is being administered by utilizing wireless obstruction technology that allows medics the power, with the push of a button, to obstruct the press release function of the buckle. When the obstruction technology isn’t engaged, Strapus functions as a typical quick-release buckle, giving EMS professionals all the tools they need to keep their patient safe in any circumstance. Obstruction buckles can also be outfitted on the leg strap and shoulder harness for even more control and safety.
Ergonomic design
Using state-of-the-art ergonomic design to comfortably, safely, and securely transport patients Strapus includes a leg strap, a 4-point hip harness, and an innovative shoulder harness. Strapus ensures that no matter the size, shape, or condition of your patient, he will make it to the destination safely meeting all CAAS and SAE requirements.
Lightweight and easy to operate
Strapus was designed by paramedics, with paramedics in mind. We created Strapus with the intent of making our harness the easiest to use, safest, and the cleanest restraining system available. Buckles are made from aluminum, harnesses from highest quality non-permeable straps making it ultra-durable, lightweight, easily adjustable, and stain resistant.
Universal Application
Strapus was created to be used with any ambulance cot without the need for complicated installations or modifications. Strapus has a unique quick-adjustment attachment system that will securely connect to any stretcher on the market, quickly and easily.
