About

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.

Description:

Data will be collected with the 'Participant Information Form' and the 'Nurses' Knowledge Level, Attitudes and Practices Regarding Physical Restraint Scale', prepared by the researcher in line with the literature and containing the demographic characteristics of the participants. Intensive care nurses who will participate in the research will be asked to fill out the survey forms with individual consent. Participant Information Form and Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Levels Regarding Physical Restraint Scale will be used as pre-tests. After the pre-test, nurses will be given physical restraint training. The training content was created using the ADDIE model as reference. After the training, the Nurses' Knowledge Level, Attitudes and Practices Regarding Physical Restraint Scale will be used as the final test.
