Problem Statement

Restraint use in many ICUs was above the NDNQI benchmark for hospitals with 500 or more beds. It is imperative that nurses ensure patient safety and dignity as well as the basic right of a patient to be free from restraint. How can we move closer to, or get below, the NDNQI benchmark of 20.89% while still ensuring patient and staff safety?

Benefits

  • Improved Patient Safety
  • Improve Patient and Family Satisfaction
  • Maintain Clinician Safety

Significance Significance Significance

  • ICU patients are frequently

ICU patients are frequently intubated intubated and and prone to develop pain, anxiety and delirium; prone to develop pain, anxiety and delirium; assessing and treating the underlying causes, assessing and treating the underlying causes, is imperative is imperative

  • Early

Early extubation extubation through through “ “sedation vacation sedation vacation” ” reduces the need for restraints reduces the need for restraints

  • Managing and monitoring patients at risk

Managing and monitoring patients at risk using innovative tools and family involvement using innovative tools and family involvement while maintaining patient safety can reduce while maintaining patient safety can reduce the need for restraints the need for restraints

Assess Causes

Hypoxia, pain, anxiety, delirium

Restraint use in our ICU’s is above the NDNQI benchmark for hospitals > 500 beds. As nurses, it is imperative that we ensure patient dignity, safety and the basic patient right to be free from restraints.
