ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application effects of new-type glove constraint in intensive care unit. Methods A total of 113 eligible patients were randomly divided into two groups by random digits table method, of which 59 patients used the traditional restraint for body constraint in the control group while 54 patients applied the new-type glove constraint in the treatment group. The skin conditions of restraint position, tube coming off and the satisfaction of patients and relatives were compared between two groups. Results The incidence of skin abnormality at restraint position was 0 in the treatment group and 13.6%(8/59) in the control group. The difference had statistical significance (χ2=7.880, P<0.01). The satisfaction of patients and relatives was 33.3%(18/54) in the treatment group and 5.1%(3/59) in the control group, and the difference had statistical significance (χ2=16.619, P<0.01). Conclusions The use of new-type glove constraint may give a maximum activity space to patients;reduce patient′s psychological adverse impacts;and decrease the skin and body damages. It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
