Objective To study the application effect of restraint band in patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU. Methods 140 patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU admitted to our hospital from October 2022 to October 2023 were randomly divided into observation group and control group (70 cases in both cases). The observation group was subjected to standardized restraint band, while the control group was subjected to routine restraint band. The physical restraint rate, unplanned extubation rate, restraint time, skin abnormality rate and delirium rate were compared between the two groups. Results The constraint rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The constraint time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group, and the difference in index comparison was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In the observation group, there were 1 case of unplanned extubation, 1 case of delirium and 2 cases of abnormal skin. In the control group, there were 8 cases of unplanned extubation, 10 cases of delirium and 11 cases of abnormal skin, and there were significant differences in index comparison (P < 0.05). Conclusion The standardized restraint band can effectively reduce the physical restraint rate and unplanned extubation rate of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU, and shorten the restraint time of patients.
