Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of finger-holding force ball on prevention of unplanned extubation in ICU patients.Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select 70 patients from January to June 2017 who received tracheal intubation,femoral vein catheterization or bladder catheter.From April to June 2017,35 patients were selected as the experimental group,and hand restraint was strengthened by means of finger-holding force ball.Thirty-five patients recruited from January to March 2017 were selected as the control group,and wrist restraint was performed by routine method.The risk rate of extubation and the skin injury of the wrist in two groups were compared.Results The risk rate of extubation in the experimental group for femoral vein catheterization,bladder catheter and tracheal intubation was 6.37 cases/1000 catheter days,0 and 5.68 cases/1000 catheter days,lower than 200.00 cases/1000 catheter days,177.60 cases/1000 catheter days,and 230.34 cases/1000 catheter days in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.001);redness and skin injury at wrist restraint site in the experimental group was 5.71％ and 0,lower than 22.86％ and 17.14％ in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion The finger-holding force ball is easy to use,the effects are good,and it is much more comfortable to use the finger-holding force ball than traditional restraint tools.
