THE WET-SHEET-PACK LETTER
The Letter
This letter was received by me some years ago. I have
uploaded it in case others find it as interesting as I
do. Clearly this procedure is highly dangerous and I
strongly recommend that it not be used by anyone who is
not professionally qualified.
Dear XXX:
Thank you for sending Nurse Harvey's description
of her wet-pack.
<<<......My favorite restraint is the wet- pack.
As many as 30 wet cotton sheets are individually
wrapped about the limbs and body - as tightly as
possible, so that only the breathing tube from
the inflatable gag remains exposed. The sheets
are then compacted and bound paralyzingly tight
using several long roller towels.
Once these have been wrapped and pulled very
tightly round the patient, mummy fashion from
head to toe, it is quite impossible to move -
not even to blink or twitch a toe (unless a foot
has been left exposed so that it can be tickled,
or to have itching powder applied to it).
Often panic has already set in, but the worst
has yet to come.
Since the patient is now rigid he can be picked
up in an invalid hoist and lowered into a long
water tank containing water, crushed ice-just as
cold as I can make it. You probably cannot
imagine the shock or agony as this ice-cold
water seeps through the bindings and numbs the
skin.
It is of no consolation that I hoist him out and
strap him very tightly to a hospital type bed
when he has been sufficiently soaked. The muscle
contractions due to struggling can reduce the
cold but this soon results in unbearable heat,
especially if the patient is further wrapped in
heavy rubber sheets. The patient can be
reimmersed and the cycle repeated whenever my
assistant or I feel like it.
By the morning, after a sleepless night and only
cramp and the fear of reimmersion to break the
monotony, the patient's power to resist is often
broken. .......>>>
The roller towels that you asked about are rarely
seen in the U.S., but are common in England.
Essentially each towel is several hundred feet long
by about one foot wide. When utilized for its
intended purpose each towel is rolled up and sits in
a wall-mounted dispenser. The user pulls a fresh
section from the cabinet to dry his or her hands. The
used portions rolls back up into the cabinet. The
towel is a strong cotton weave without any nap - like
heavy sheeting.
Fearsome as her pack sounds, one of the institutions
that I worked in often used much more stringent packs
on its troublesome patients. instructions and
observations follow:
PREPARE PATIENT
shave all hair including legs, crotch and armpits.
Do not shave the head unless specifically ordered
to do so.
cleanse with enema.
wash body using strong detergent (degreasing body
minimizes insulation.)
depending upon orders, insert urethral catheter or
put on rubber pants, sealed at legs and waist with
waterproof tape.
insert intravenous saline and nutrient drips as
required.
insert ear plugs.
either: provide patient with mouth breathing tube
or: insert gag, seal mouth with waterproof tape
and insert nostril tubes.
Strap the patient to the corners of the frame (a
strong rectangular metal frame approximately 10'6"
x2'6"0 using waterproof cuffs at ankles and wrists.
Pull the straps, attaching the cuffs to the frame, as
tight as possible.
THE TANK
Fill a hydro tank (approximately 11ft x 3ft x 3ft)
with luke warm water (about 70 degrees Fahrenheit).
Hoist the frame and patient into the water filled
tank. Each end of the frame has one pivot at its
center which fits into a corresponding socket inside
the tank. This arrangement allows the frame and
patient to be rotated about the long axis like a
barbecue spit. Disconnect the hoist. The frame is now
free to rotate beneath the surface of the water.
Ensure that the patient is breathing properly through
the tubes(s) provided and that the tubes remain
kind-free and open during the packing procedure.
PACKING - STAGE 1
Take each folded sheet from the soak-tub and refold
it appropriately for its purpose. Pass each sheet
through the soak-tub rollers to expel any trapped
air. Quickly reimmerse the sheet in the tub until
needed.
The purpose of preparing the sheets in this way, and
applying the pack with the patient underwater, is to
ensure that all air is excluded from the pack. Air
acts as an insulator and tends to diminish the
effectiveness of the pack. In addition, applying the
pack in the tank is easier because the patient is
relatively buoyant.
Carefully wrap the sheets around each limb as tightly
and smoothly as possible. Use cloth tapes to tightly
tie each sheet in place prior to bandaging. After
each sheet has been tied in place, use 6" cotton
bandages to bind it even more tightly. Remove the
tapes during the bandaging to avoid localized
pressure.
Bandaging the thickest part of the limb first tends
to force the flesh to the thinner parts and make the
limb a more uniform thickness and therefore easier to
pack. Ensure that each turn of the bandage overlaps
considerably with the last. It is important that the
pressure be applied as evenly as possible to reduce
the probability of pressure-sores.
Such extensive use of bandages may seem extravagant
but it is important to anchor each sheet individually
to ensure that no amount of prolonged wriggling can
loosen the pack. The bandages are relatively cheap
and can often be reused. It may seem like a lot of
extra work but the patient isn't going to be unpacked
frequently. This method actually takes less time
overall than more frequent packing using less
rigorous methods.
To aid in the wrapping operation, rotate the frame
and patient like a spit. This is a great improvement
over manhandling the enormous combined weight of
patient and wet- pack on a table. Include the hands
and feet in the wrapping process, removing and
replacing the cuffs one at a time. To help speed the
process several hydro attendants should work at the
same time on different body areas. The supervising
nurse must ensure that all the bindings are tight
enough and that the pressure is uniform.
When binding the head, use pads over the eyes to
minimize any cavities in the packing.
After a couple of sheets have been wrapped around the
torso use a short corset to compress the waist and
control respiration if this a level 4 pack or higher.
In the case of a male patient fold the penis back
toward the buttocks and hold it in position with pack
sheets applied in the style of diaper. Hold the
sheets in place with a tightly strapped canvas waist
belt and attached crotch strap designed to prevent
erection.
Once the limbs, trunk, crotch, neck and head are
satisfactorily wrapped then stage 2 begins.
PACKING - STAGE 2
Hoist the support-frame from the bottom of the tank
so that the patient is supported by it. Remove the
ankle cuffs and place sheets between the legs to fill
any gaps. Securely wrap additional sheets around the
legs and the trunk and fasten them in place again
with bandages. At this stage stronger bandages should
be used, made out of cotton sheeting. It is no longer
necessary to bandage after every sheet.
Splint the legs and body. The splint is a canvas
corset-like device, with metal rust free stays that
laces up the back and extends from ankles to beneath
armpits with adjustable shoulder straps. Fittings are
provided for the level 4 head- harness and shoulder
brace to be attached. Lace up the splint as tightly
as possible, using heavy-duty buttonhook- like
devices and temporary straps. Once properly applied
the patient is held in absolute rigidity. If the feet
are not going to be held en-pointe (level 5 and
above) then the splint should be anchored by a strap
across the soles of the feet.
Release the wrist cuffs and remove the original frame
altogether, leaving the water-logged patient
supported by the "support-frame" - but still
underwater.
Put each arm into a splint. Each splint has a mitt for the
hand. Tightly lace each arm splint from wrist to armpit.
Strap the arms securely to the side of the body using the
special canvas straps built into the side of the body-splint,
passing the straps through the loops in the arm splints. A
level 5 pack or above may specify different arm positions.
Use extra-large sheets to wrap the entire body, from
the crown of the head to the tips of the toes, as a
single unit. As with any other wrapping operation,
pass each sheet at least 3 complete times around the
patient (or limb) to ensure that it cannot be
unwrapped by the patient. After the last sheets are
added then again bandage the patient from head to
toe.
Overall a lot of sheets are used. They should be 100%
cotton in order to absorb and retain the maximum
amount of water and provide the minimum insulation.
They are usually made from and extra-heavy white
sheeting in various sizes but are generally larger
than regular bed sheets. Although the number of
sheets by vary from patient ot patient, the following
pack sheets might typically be used (not in the order
of application):
- left leg 4
- right leg 4
- left foot 1
- right foot 1
- left arm & hand 3
- right arm & hand 3
- neck 2
- head 3
- crotch 2
- trunk 6
- between legs 4
- legs together 4
- entire torso 11

SECURITY BAG
In a level 3 pack or above, canvas cinch straps
should be used and the patient put in a heavy canvas
security bag. (Remember that the patient is still
immersed in the tank and that the staff should ensure
that there is no air in the security bag before using
it.)
Tightly lace and strap the security bag and then
perform a final heavy bandaging to prevent any
possibility of air entering the security bag when the
patient is raised out of the tank. The patient is
then securely refastened to the support-frame with a
number of canvas straps. In a level 5 and above,
force the feet into an exaggerated en-pointe position
using a ballet strap.
HOIST PATIENT
When the patient and frame are hoisted out of the
tank, excess body-heated water drains off. As the
water drains out of the pack no air can pass back
through the pack-sheets to fill the voids previously
filled by the water. Thus the patient not only feels
the oppressive weight of the wet sheets, but will
also feel the pack draw tighter as the sheets
"shrink" to fill any gaps previously filled with
water. It is rather similar to being vacuum packed.
The canvas straps used to secure the patient to the
frame should be retightened as any excess water
drains from the pack.
IMMERSION IN COLD TANK
Move the hoisted frame and patient to the cold tank
where the water is kept refrigerated. Gradually lower
the patient into the tank. In order to ensure that
all the warm water is removed from the pack, hoist
the patient out and allow the pack to drain before
reimmersion. Perform this process several times in
quick succession.
As the freezing water gradually passes though the
pack you may hear the patient desperately trying to
inhale more air through the breathing tubes as the
cold water causes the oxygen requirement to shoot up.
The patient will try to inhale all the air that she
can as her metabolism increases to combat the cold.
In a level 5 pack, or higher, a nurse may request
that the air supply be reduced at such times.
After the initial immersion cycles the patient is
left to soak in the tank and the auto-immersion cycle
is started. This is essentially a timer that causes
the patient to be hoisted out of the tank and
reimmersed automatically. The timer has a random
setting that is most often used to avoid the patient
being able to anticipate the next hoisting or
reimmersion. The period between immersions may be
long enough for the patient to become uncomfortably
hot but maybe not.
In this way the patient is left without any contact
with the outside world for as much as a week at a
time. The hell endured by such a patient is hard to
imagine. Itching, cramps and fear of reimmersion are
the only companions.
The timer switch may also activate the white-noise
speakers in the hydro room, which effectively mask
any outside noise that the patient might otherwise
hear. Since the white-noise is very loud, staff
should wear hearing protectors while in the room. The
patient is protected by the ear plugs and layers of
pack.
OBSERVATIONS
A wet-sheet-pack is clearly a fearsome method of
discipline. The patient is transformed into an
absolutely helpless and rigid mummy, without even the
slightest hope of escape. Even the fingers, toes, jaw
and eyelids are immobilized. Even shivering is
reduced to a minimal level. The patient is usually
reduced to a state of blind panic, but is not able to
communicate that panic to anyone or get any form of
comfort.
The patient is alone!
The patient is being crushed and needs to move to
relieve the screaming cramps in the limbs and body.
The patient cannot possibly lie still any longer -
but will!
The patient has no idea when she will be released or
how much time has passed. The patient knows beyond
doubt that she has entered a living hell - if this
can be called living.
If the patient is not catheterized then the question
of eliminations will eventually arise:
"Can I hold back until I am released?"
"How long will I have to wait - just a few minutes
more?"
Eventually the patient will succumb to the urge and
be forced to urinate. Later the issue becomes
defecation and again the patient is eventually forced
to succumb. In addition to the shame of fouling
herself and lying in her own waste she is concerned
about what "treatment" may be meted out to her if she
fouls herself and the tank so horribly.
"When is this going to end?"
"I must have been here for hours!
"Is it night or is it day?"
"Have I been in here for 6 hours or 24 hours or 2
days or a week?"
"Nobody told me how long this treatment would last -
they implied it would only be a couple of hours, but
I know it's been longer than that!"
"Are they ever going to release me?"
"The cramps keep getting worse and my muscles feel
as if they are being torn apart."
"Are my arms turning blue?"
"If only I could die."
"Oh god, please let me out."
But the patient is not released - the treatment
continues. "Life" remains a living hell of
alternating heat, cold, reimmersion, fear of
drowning, claustrophobia, suffocation, cramps and
unimaginable boredom. Nothing to do but lie there,
nothing to hear, smell, control or feel except the
cold.
There is no way to know when the next immersion will
come, or if it will come, and no way to judge the
passing of time.
