Abstract

Introduction: Nurses are primarily responsible for patient care and safety. Identificationof nurses perceptions about restraint practices is thus important for raising awareness on thisissue. This study aimed to identify perceptions about physical restraint use among nursesworking in wards and intensive care units (ICUs) in three university hospitals.Materials and Method: The study was conducted in three university hospitals with 298nurses who completed the Perceptions of Restraint Use Questionnaire (PRUQ) to evaluate theirperceptions of the use of restraint in the care of older patients. Higher values indicated that thesituations described were considered an important justification for using physical restraints.Results: The overall mean score for the PRUQ was 4.14. Nurses identified “Falling outof bed” as the most important reason for restraining a patient and “Substituting for staffobservation”as the least important reason. In addition, there was a significant relationshipbetween the perception of using restraints in wards and ICUs. It was noted that the nursesreported that using restraints in ICUs was more common than in wards.Conclusion: The nurses’ perceptions on the practice of physical restraint were high.According to these result, the nurses need to learn alternative practices for decreasing use ofrestraints and consider it important to plan individualized nursing care for older patients whoneed to be restrained and to provide sufficient information to them and their families aboutthe safety charestics of the practice.

Özet

Giriş: Hemşirelerin temel sorumluluklarından biri de bakım sürecinde hastaların kendilerine ve başkalarına zarar vermesini engellemektir. Hemşirelerin tespit uygulamalarındaki algı düzeylerinin tanımlanması bu konuda farkındalık oluşturmak açısından önemlidir. Bu çalışmada üç üniversite hastanesinde çalışan hemşirelerin genel servisler ile yoğun bakımlarda fiziksel tespit kullanımına ilişkin algılarının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma, hemşirelerin yaşlı hastaların bakımında tespit kullanımı hakkındaki görüşlerini değerlendirmek amacıyla üç üniversite hastanesinde Tespit Kullanımı Algı Anketini (PRUQ-T) tamamlayan 298 hemşire ile yürütülmüştür. Anketten elde edilen puanların yükselmesi hemşirelerin fiziksel tespiti kullanım algılarının yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Bulgular: PRUQ-T puan ortalaması 4.14 olarak bulunmuştur. Hemşireler, hastalara tespit kullanımının en önemli nedenini “Hastanın yataktan düşmesini engellemek”, en az önemli nedenini ise “Personelin gözetimi için yaşlının yerinde kalmasını sağlama” olarak belirtmişlerdir. Ayrıca, genel servislerde tespit kullanımı algısı ile yoğun bakım ünitelerinde lerinde tespit kullanımı algısı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur. Hemşireler yoğun bakım ünitelerinde servislere göre daha fazla tespit kullanıldığını belirtmişlerdir. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda hemşirelerin tespit kullanım algılarının yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu sonuca göre, hemşirelerin yaşlılarda tespit kullanımının azaltılması için tespit kullanımına alternatif yöntemler uygulaması, tespit kullanılması gereken durumlarda ise bireyselleştirilmiş hemşirelik bakım planı yapması ve güvenlik uygulamalarına ilişkin hastalara ve ailelerine yeterli bilgi verilmesi önerilerilmektedir.
