Olympic Papoose Board Patient Immobilizer (Protective Stabilization Board)

The Olympic Papoose Board is an MRI-safe, latex-free protective stabilization device used to safely and temporarily stabilize pediatric and adult patients during dental, radiology, and emergency procedures. Trusted by hospitals, dental practices, and imaging centers, it gently limits movement so the care team can deliver medically-necessary examination, imaging, or treatment when a patient cannot hold still and less-restrictive methods are not effective. Protective stabilization is the contemporary clinical term (per the AAPD) for what was formerly called physical restraint or medical immobilization, and the Olympic Papoose Board is the device the AAPD names in its best practice.

Pacific Biomedical stocks the complete Olympic Papoose Board line in four sizes, plus every replacement flap, head strap, head immobilizer, and arm strap, all matched by size so you order the right fit the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What sizes do Olympic Papoose Boards come in, and how do I choose?

Four sizes, selected by patient age: Small for infants up to 24 months, Regular for ages 2 to 6, Large for ages 6 to 12, and Extra-Large for teenagers and adults.

Which replacement parts fit my papoose board?

Parts are matched by board size. Use the Small flap set, 30 inch head strap, and Small head immobilizer with the Small board; regular flaps, 33 inch head strap, and Regular head immobilizer with the Regular board; the Large flap unit, 33 inch head strap, and Large head immobilizer with the Large board; and the Extra-Large flap unit, 36 inch head strap, and XL arm strap set with the Extra-Large board. Genuine Olympic parts are not interchangeable with radiolucent or Phillips Safety look-alike parts.

What is protective stabilization, and is a papoose board the same thing?

Protective stabilization is the term the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) uses for the physical limitation of a patient's movement, by a person or a device, for a finite period of time in order to safely provide examination, diagnosis, or treatment. It replaces the older terms physical restraint and medical immobilization. A papoose board is a passive protective-stabilization device.

Is a papoose board safe, and can it harm a child?

Used correctly, it is considered safe. The AAPD's 2024 best practice cites studies finding that deep pressure from the Olympic Papoose Board provided comfort, reduced the effects of stressful stimuli, and was non-harmful to patients with special health care needs. Per AAPD safety rules, stabilization must never restrict a patient's breathing or circulation, must never induce pain, must be monitored continuously, and the patient must never be left unattended on the board.

Is a papoose board appropriate for patients with autism or special health care needs?

It can be. Research cited by the AAPD found the Olympic Papoose Board provided comfort and was non-harmful for patients with special health care needs, and the deep-touch-pressure input can give some patients a calming sense of security, similar to a weighted blanket. It is used when a patient cannot hold still for medically-necessary care and less-restrictive approaches have not worked, always with consent and monitoring, never as a means of discipline.

Is the Olympic Papoose Board MRI safe and radiolucent?

Yes. The Olympic Papoose Board has a metal-free, latex-free, radiolucent design the manufacturer describes as MRI Safe, so it can be used during MRI, X-ray, and CT without metal artifacts, helping produce clear scans while the patient stays still.

Do you need parental consent to use a papoose board?

Yes. The AAPD requires that informed consent be obtained from the parent or guardian and documented in the patient's record before protective stabilization is used. The parent may ask that it be stopped at any time, and it should be the least-restrictive option, used only when less-restrictive methods are not effective.

How do you clean an Olympic Papoose Board?

Wipe the rigid board with liquid disinfectant or soap and water, and machine wash or steam sterilize the flap sets and arm straps between patients, supporting infection-control workflows.
