Assessing the patients behavior To establish the patients behavioral baseline, assess his or her mental status, mood, and behavioral control. This allows clinicians to later determine how the patient is tolerating restraint and helps ensure restraint will be discontinued as soon as clinically indicated.
Examples of Physical Restraint Practices Placing a chair close to a wall, heavy table, or other barrier to prevent rising. Using a concave mattress that the patient cannot get out of. Tucking in a sheet tightly so it prevents movement; fastening fabric or clothing in such a way that freedom of movement is restricted.
Some examples of physical restraints include: Lap belts. Recliners that lean back, preventing easy movement. Side rails. Concave mattresses that prevent the patient from getting out of bed. Vests or belts on the wrists, pelvis, or waist that restrict movement. Trays or other devices that can prevent rising from a chair.
