Concept
Medical restraints are (physical or verbal) measures used to restrict the freedom of the patient in question. Many forms of medical restraints fall under this definition, including but not limited to:
involuntary treatment
physical restraints (such as a cushion belt)
house rules
Medical restraints may only be implemented under strict conditions. The ‘Wet BOPZ’ [Dutch Psychiatric Hospitals (Compulsory Admissions) Act] protects the rights of clients who are involuntarily admitted into mental healthcare, services for the disabled and in geriatric psychiatry. The act only applies in ‘BOPZ’-marked facilities and also applies to some (closed) wards in retirement homes.
Mental healthcare facilities use a national registration system to register the restraints called Argus registration.
Purpose
Implementing medical restraints is risky and can result in damage to patients if they are not carefully implemented. Nurses fulfil an important role in identifying risks, observing the effect of the restraints and any changes to the policy in terms of medical restraints. Recording all information on the measures is of major importance for insight into decision-making, implementing, monitoring and evaluating the measures. In the event of a transfer to the next facility, the proper preparations can be taken to safely continue the care and to limit the risks to the patient and their environment.
