Abstract:
Objective To design a modified medical clamp-type restraining gloves for the agitated patient.Methods The gloves were composed of two parts for palm and wrist.The palm part had a layer of hardboard at each side,and the wrist part had a restraining belt at the outer surface and a layer of detachable circular pad at the internal surface.Totally 100 ICU patients were selected by random sampling and then divided into a control group and an observation group.The control group used the traditional restraining gloves,and the observation group applied the modified restraining gloves.The two groups were compared on the incidence rates for dropping off of the gloves,unplanned extubation and corresponding complications.Results The modified restraining gloves gained high application effects,and were easily acceptable for the patient dependents.The observation group had all the incidence rates for dropping off of the gloves,unplanned extubation and corresponding complications significantly lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The modified restraining gloves have easy operation and high reliability,and thus are worthy promoting practically.
