Nursing Supervisor Question:
Tell me how to apply wrist and ankle restraint?
Answer:
To apply wrist and ankle restraint,
☛ Pad the bony areas of the restrained area.
☛ The padded portion should be applied at the ankle or wrists correspondingly
☛ The tie of the restraint should be pulled through the corresponding slit
☛ To avoid the tourniquet effect, use a half-bow knot in order to attach the other end to the movable side of the bed
Be careful while removing the restraints, because failing to follow them will be considered negligence.
