Download or read book Avoidance of Physical Restraint Use Among Hospitalized Older Adults written by Chantelle Lachance and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitals operate with the primary goal of improving the health of individuals who seek health care services. Despite this, a small proportion of patients experience unintended harm during their hospital stay; 37% of these adverse events are considered preventable. Older adults are particularly vulnerable to adverse events during their hospital stay as they tend to be frailer and have more comorbidities than their younger counterparts. In particular, falls in the hospital setting are three times more likely than in the community. The ideology of restraint use is to prevent patients from harming themselves (e.g., patient is a high risk for sustaining a fall) or others (e.g., patient displays dangerous behavior towards care staff or other patients). Restraints are often described as a chemical or a physical restraint. This report aims to summarize the evidence regarding the clinical effectiveness and evidence-based guidelines for the use or avoidance of physical restraints among hospitalized older adults.

Download or read book Finding What Works in Health Care written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthcare decision makers in search of reliable information that compares health interventions increasingly turn to systematic reviews for the best summary of the evidence. Systematic reviews identify, select, assess, and synthesize the findings of similar but separate studies, and can help clarify what is known and not known about the potential benefits and harms of drugs, devices, and other healthcare services. Systematic reviews can be helpful for clinicians who want to integrate research findings into their daily practices, for patients to make well-informed choices about their own care, for professional medical societies and other organizations that develop clinical practice guidelines. Too often systematic reviews are of uncertain or poor quality. There are no universally accepted standards for developing systematic reviews leading to variability in how conflicts of interest and biases are handled, how evidence is appraised, and the overall scientific rigor of the process. In Finding What Works in Health Care the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends 21 standards for developing high-quality systematic reviews of comparative effectiveness research. The standards address the entire systematic review process from the initial steps of formulating the topic and building the review team to producing a detailed final report that synthesizes what the evidence shows and where knowledge gaps remain. Finding What Works in Health Care also proposes a framework for improving the quality of the science underpinning systematic reviews. This book will serve as a vital resource for both sponsors and producers of systematic reviews of comparative effectiveness research.
