Abstract:
The patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) often suffer from complicated and serious diseases, they are frequently necessary to have multiple tubes indwelling into the body and many practical measures or surgical operations performed by doctors or nurses, and generally they have no family members accompanying them in the unit. In order to avoid various accidents and ensure reaching the aim of treatment, according to the patient's individual situation, physical restraint straps are regularly applied. But the straps used for ICU patients may cause many problems in the course of restraint. In this paper, the existing problems are analyzed to reduce the adverse effects of this protective restraint on the physical and mental health of the patients.
