Concept
Medical restraints are (physical or verbal) measures used to restrict the freedom of the patient in question.
In hospitals, these often include the use of side rails, a cushion belt (around the waist), limb restraints or a Posey bed. Medical restraints are often used in combination with sedatives.
Medical restraints may only be implemented under strict conditions. The Vereniging Verpleegkundigen & Verzorgenden Nederland (V&VN) [Dutch Nurses and Carers Association] published a set of guidelines for nurses to implement these restraints in hospitals.
The patient’s high-risk behavior providing cause for the restraints is not described in this concept.
Purpose
Implementing medical restraints is risky and can result in damage to the patient 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.
Patient Population
This building block does not focus on patients that reside in mental healthcare facilities, as mental healthcare uses a national registration system (Argus registration) when implementing medical restraints.

The type of restraint describes the medical restraints. In a hospital setting, these restraints are mainly based on the Dutch Nurses and Carers Association’s Handbook "Vrijheidsbeperking in het ziekenhuis? Nee, tenzij…” [Medical Restraints in the Hospital? Not unless...].
Technical specifications in HL7v3 CDA and HL7 FHIR
To exchange information based on health and care information models, additional, more technical specifications are required.
Not every environment can handle the same technical specifications. For this reason, there are several types of technical specifications:
HL7® version 3 CDA compatible specifications, available through the Nictiz ART-DECOR® environment
HL7® FHIR® compatible specifications, available through the Nictiz environment on the Simplifier FHIR
