Week5 Assign5Q.Evidence Based Practice A.docx NURS 4100 Evidence Based Practice: Restraints Walden University NURS 4100: Quality and Safety through Evidence Based Practice Evidence Based Practice: Restraints Evidence from research has indicated the restraints and seclusion are controversial topic in mental health hospitals in attempt to control aggressive behaviors displayed by patients. Restraints are defined as any manual method, physical, material, or equipment that immobilizes or reduces the ability of the patient to freely move his/her arms, legs body or head. (Raveesh, Gowda G., Gowda, M. 2019). This method is usually used as a last resort when other interventions have failed. It is been indicated through research that restraints do not provide therapeutic value to staff or patients. Evidence from additional research offers alternatives to restraints and seclusions regarding patient aggressive behaviors. Interest in healthcare today focuses on the use of alternatives to restraints and seclusions. Restraints have been viewed as having negative consequences on the patient and the staff, as well as injures and possible death to the patient. The focus with research provided is to determine with adults in behavioral health settings (P), how does use of physical restraints with standard therapy (I) compare to use of behavioral modification therapy in conjunction with standard therapy (C) to reduce assaultive behaviors (O)?
