2. Using Restraints
Some persons who present dangers to themselves or others
may need restraints.
The following have rules for using restraints:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA)
OBRA and CMS rules protect the person’s rights and safety.
3. Using Restraints, cont'd.
Restraints may only be used:
To treat a medical symptom
For the immediate physical safety of the person or others
When less restrictive measures fail to protect the person or others
Restraints must be discontinued at the earliest possible time.
4. Physical Restraints
The CMS uses these terms in its rules for long-term care
agencies:
Physical restraint
• Any manual method or physical or mechanical device, material, or equipment
• Attached to or near the person’s body
• That he or she cannot remove easily
• That restricts freedom of movement or normal access to one’s body
5. Other Restraints
Chemical restraint
Any drug that is used for discipline or convenience.
Any drug that is not required to treat medical symptoms.
The drug or dosage is not a standard treatment for the person’s condition.
Freedom of movement
Any change in place or position of the body or any part of the body that the
person is physically able to control
Remove easily
Means that the manual method device, material, or equipment used to
restrain the person can be removed intentionally by the person in the same
manner it was applied by the staff
6. History of Restraint Use
Restraints were once thought to prevent falls.
Restraints were used:
To prevent wandering or interfering with treatment
For persons who showed confusion, poor judgment, or behavior
problems
Older persons were restrained more often than were younger
persons.
Restraints were viewed as necessary devices to protect a
person.
Restraints can cause serious harm, even death.
7. History of Restraint Use, cont'd.
The CMS, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), state agencies,
and The Joint Commission (TJC) have guidelines for the use of
restraints.
They require considering or trying all other appropriate alternatives first.
Every agency has policies and procedures about restraints that
include:
Identifying persons at risk for harm
Identifying harmful behaviors
Identifying restraint alternatives
Identifying proper restraint use
Providing staff training
8. Restraint Alternatives
Knowing and treating the causes and reasons for harmful
behaviors can prevent restraint use.
The nurse tries to find out what the behavior means.
Restraint alternatives for the person are identified.
• They become part of the care plan.
If restraint alternatives do not protect the person, the doctor may need
to order restraints.
9. Safe Restraint Use
Restraints can cause serious injury and even death.
Restraints are not used to discipline a person or for staff
convenience.
Discipline is any action that punishes or penalizes a person.
Convenience is any action that:
• Controls or manages the person’s behavior
• Requires less effort by the agency
• Is not in the person’s best interests
10. Safe Restraint Use, cont'd.
Restraints are used only when necessary to treat a person’s
medical symptoms.
The CMS defines a medical symptom as an indication or characteristic of a
physical or psychological condition.
According to the CMS, physical restraints are described as follows:
They may be any manual method, physical or mechanical device, material, or
equipment.
They are attached to or next to the person’s body.
They cannot be easily removed by the person.
They restrict freedom of movement or normal access to one’s body.
11. Safe Restraint Use, cont'd.
Drugs or drug dosages are chemical restraints if they:
Control behavior or restrict movement
Are not standard treatment for the person’s condition
Drugs cannot be used if they affect physical or mental function.
12. Safe Restraint Use, cont'd.
An enabler is a device that limits freedom of movement but is
used to promote independence, comfort, or safety.
Some devices are restraints and enablers.
When the person uses a geriatric chair with a lap-top tray for meals,
writing, and so on, the chair is an enabler. If used to limit freedom of
movement, it is a restraint.
A person chooses to have raised bed rails. The bed rails are used to
move in bed and to prevent falling out of bed. The bed rails are
enablers, not restraints.
13. Safe Restraint Use, cont'd.
Risks from restraint use
Injuries occur:
• As the person tries to get free of the restraint
• From using the wrong restraint, applying it wrong, or keeping it on too long
Effects include:
• Cuts, bruises, and fractures are common.
• The most serious risk is death from strangulation.
• Restraints affect dignity and self-esteem.
14. Safe Restraint Use, cont'd.
The Safe Medical Device Act applies if a restraint causes
illness, injury, or death.
CMS requires the reporting of any death that occurs:
• While a person is in a restraint
• Within 24 hours after a restraint was removed
• Within 1 week after a restraint was removed
• If the restraint may have contributed directly or indirectly to the person’s death
15. Legal Aspects
Legal aspects

injury.

19. Applying Restraints
Applying restraints
Restraints are made of cloth (soft restraints) or leather.
Wrist restraints (limb holders) limit arm movement.
Mitt restraints prevent finger use.
Belt restraints are used when the person is at risk for injuries from a fall or
when they are needed for positioning during a medical treatment.
• The belt is applied over a garment.
Vest restraints and jacket restraints are applied to the chest.
• A jacket restraint is applied with the opening in the back.
• For a vest restraint, the vest crosses in front.
