Abstract A new type of lockable limb harness which when attached to an arm or leg securely prevents the limb from slipping out of position, while not obstructing blood circulation at the point of attachment. This new invention consists of two loops made out of fabric or fabric type material joined together plus a ring placed in position so it can traverse the length of the larger loop. The small loop is slipped over a fixed object such as an extending hook from a wall, or an arm extending from an intravenous bottle post, while the larger loop is place around the limb to be supported. The ring, already in position at the top of the large loop is slipped down to securely lock the limb to the harness, with a noose type of hold.
In a medical limb harness the combination comprising of two loops connected together, made out of fabric or materials with fabric like properties, and a sliding tightening device designed in any geometrical shape, with said sliding tightening device capable of traversing the lengths of said loops while encompassing the width of said loops.
