Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare newly designed glove type restraints with traditional restraints
and to evaluate the applicability for nurses to use the restraints. Methods: This study was designed as a one group
pretest-posttest study. For this study nurses used both types of restraints with 19 elderly patients to prevent
self-extubation. The researcher measured physical indicators, including skin edema, skin temperature, skin moisture
and self-extubation, in the elderly patients and evaluated applicability of restraint for nurses. Results: There
were no significant differences in pretest-posttest for the physical indicators in elderly patients except for circumference
of the mid hand (z=2.60, p=.018). There were significant differences between pretest and posttest in evaluating
applicability of restraints by nurses. ‘overly restrictive (z=-2.81, p=.005)’ and ‘maintaining (z=-2.75, p=.006)’
were higher in traditional restraints than in the new ones and ‘applicability for skin damaged patients (z=-2.54,
p=.011)’ was higher for new restraints than traditional ones. Conclusion: The results show that the newly developed
restraints do not increase the risk of skin damage in elderly patients. Also nurses need to consider alternative
ways for minimizing physical restraint application for patients and continue to develop strategies for a safe
environment.
