Common Name: Pediatric Backboard Strap

Classification Name: Restraint

Equivalent Product: Pedo Cush Pedo Cuddle

The Pedi-Spider is equivalent to the Pedo Cush because the main use of the device is to immobilize the pediatric patient. The Pedi-Spider does this on a backboard whereas the Pedo Cush does it in a dentist chair. The physical characteristics are very similar, in that they both use Velcro to hold the pediatric patient in place and keep them from injuring themselves further and to minimize the trauma for the situation. The Pedo Cush utilizes material and Velcro and the Pedi-Spider utilizes 1 ½" nylon or polypropylene material in a cargo net fashion with Velcro on the ends for securing the strap to the backboard.
