ABSTRACT
Objective: To develop a child simple constraint mattress with good permeability,soft,comfort,safe and easily cleanable so as to effectively avoid accidents,such as falling from bed,bump injury,scratch and hurting others.Methods: 70 hospitalized children who need restrictive measures were randomly selected in this research and were divided into observation group(35 cases)and control group(35 cases)according to the time sequence of hospitalization.The constraint mattresses was used for children of observation group,and traditional constraint bands of wrist were used for children of control group.And the effectiveness,safety,comfort,convenience and parental satisfaction of the two constraint tools were observed.Results: The effectiveness,safety,comfort,convenience and satisfaction of constraint measure of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group(x2=10.27,x2=15.97,x2=19.09,x2=3.97,x2=15.88,P＜0.05).Conclusion: The constraint effect of simple constraint mattress is better than that of traditional constraint band of wrist.
