Abstract
To identify interventions preventing mechanical restraints. Systematic review of international research papers dealing with mechanical restraint. The review combines qualitative and quantitative research in a new way, describing the quality of evidence and the effect of intervention. Implementation of cognitive milieu therapy, combined interventions, and patient-centered care were the three interventions most likely to reduce the number of mechanical restraints. There is a lack of high-quality and effective intervention studies. This leaves patients and metal health professionals with uncertainty when choosing interventions in an attempt to prevent mechanical restraints.
