Brief Summary

Patients in the intensive care unit may harm themselves by pulling medical equipment such as endotracheal tube, monitoring, arterial and peripheral catheters. Physical detection is also one of the common practices used in this case. Physical restraint is a practice performed by using patient aids to protect the individual or other patients around him, to ensure his safety and to control his behavior. Although physical detection seems to be a useful and simple method, it brings with it various physical, psychological, ethical, legal and moral problems. Nurses should use alternative strategies to prevent and reduce the use of restraint, and to avoid the negative consequences that may be caused by restraint by performing restraint appropriately and effectively, and thus ensure the safety of the patient. Evaluating nurses' knowledge on this subject, identifying deficiencies and providing training is important in terms of improving the quality of care and ensuring patient safety.
