Application of comfort care in protective restraint of female patients with mental disorders

  Objective  To explore the effect of comfort nursing in protective restraint of female schizophrenia patients.

  Methods  A total of 49 female patients with schizophrenia who were given protective restraint before the implementation of comfortable nursing from July to December 2016 were selected as the control group, another 49 female patients with schizophrenia who were given protective restraint after the implementation of comfortable nursing from January to June 2017 were as observation group. The nursing effects of the two groups were compared.

  Results  The satisfaction towards protective restraint in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (P < 0.05), and the duration of the first restraint in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (P < 0.05).

  Conclusion  Comfort nursing can effectively improve the satisfaction of female schizophrenia patients with protective restraint and shorten the duration of first restraint.
