Abstract

Objective To understand the true feelings of family members of patients with mild to moderate disturbance of consciousness in neurosurgical intensive care (NICU) when using physical constraint, in order to provide reference for the further formulation of targeted intervention measures. Methods Using the method of qualitative research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 family members of patients with mild to moderate disturbance of consciousness in NICU during physical restraint. The data were coded, analyzed, sorted and summarized according to Colaizzi's seven step analysis method. Results The experience of family members was summarized into four themes: fully supportive emotional experience, negative psychological experience, lack of family members' cognition of physical constraints, and standardizing the process of physical constraints. Conclusion NICU medical staff should pay attention to the true feelings of patients' family members, strengthen interpretation and communication of informed consent of physical restraint, and standardize the use process of physical restraint in NICU patients.
