ARM TENSIONING DEVICE TO PREVENT A SUPINE SLEEP POSITION

摘要

A system for holding a sleeper in a non-supine (e.g.: side-lying) sleeping position by: (a) placing a wrist or arm of a sleeper into a cuff connected to one end of a band or tube of elastic material; (b) connecting the second end of the band of elastic material to a stationary object, thereby restraining the range of motion of the user's upwardly facing arm when sleeping; and then (c) having the sleeper sleep in the non-supine side-lying sleeping position with the cuff connected to the upper facing arm, such that tension on the cuff from the elastic material pulls on the user's arm and thereby prevents the sleeper from rolling onto their back.
