Abstract

A medical device (100) comprises an elongated, flexible band (110) equipped with ratchet members (120) and connected to a device head (130) having a channel (135) dimensioned for reception of the band (110). A lock member (140) is connected to the head (130) and configured to interlock the ratchet members (120) when the band (110) is pulled through the channel (135) to form a reverse-motion brake. A protrusion (160) is arranged in the head (130) in connection with the channel entrance. A matching protrusion receiving member (150) is provided in the band in connection with the band-head interface and is dimensioned for reception of the protrusion (160) when the band (110) is close to fully pushed into the head (130).
