This study is a clinical decision analysis of management strategies aimed at reducing the risk of falling among elderly patients in a nursing home or nonpsychiatric hospital. Physical restraint is a common but increasingly controversial practice in the United States. Currently, intervention recommendations are typically based on anecdotal evidence and nurses are often divided as either proponents or opponents to use of physical restraints. Due to ethical and feasibility concerns, randomized controlled trials will not resolve the controversy surrounding this clinical problem. a clinical decision analysis is suitable because it is a method to formulate and quantitatively evaluate conflicting styles of care. To assess the physical restraint issue related to patient falls, three specific phases are proposed: (1) to convene a panel of national experts to form a consensus opinion on probabilities needed to quantitate and evaluate the decision analysis, (2) to assess nurses' and elderly patients's preferences of the potential outcome health states resulting from falling and the nursing approaches to prevent falls, and (3) to conduct a formal decision analysis on physical restraint versus alternative nursing management for preventing a fall from the prespectives of nurses and elderly patients in both the nursing home and general hospital settings. Seven registered nurses, nationally recognized and published in the area of gerontological nursing care, have agreed to participate in a modified- Delphi process for expert consensus opinion that will fill=gaps in the medical and nursing literature. Nurses (N=126) and elderly patients (N=126) will be recuited from the nirsing home and general hospital settings. After obtaining verbal consent, each patients will be aksed to complete short demographic questionnaire and to answer questions regarding prior experience with physical restraint and falls. The participants will be asked to rank order their preferences for 26 scenarios of health outcomes, representing combinations of health outcomes that are consequences of the management approach and/or consequences of falls. Evaluation of the clinical decision analysis will result in favoring one management strategy over the other in relation to the likelihood of health outcomes and the trade-offs among health outcome preferences. From an individual perspective, separate decision analyses will be conducted using each nurses's and elderly patient's direct rankings. The societal perspective will be examined using preference values derived from conjoint analysis. The results of these decision analyses will: (1) provide insight into the complex and difficult nursing decision, whether or not to restrain an elderly patient at risk of falling, and (2) help guide policy regarding use of physical restraints in the nursing home and general hospital setting.

这项研究是管理策略的临床决策分析 旨在降低老年患者中跌倒的风险 疗养院或非精神病医院。 身体约束是一个普遍的 但是在美国越来越有争议的做法。 目前，干预建议通常基于轶事 证据和护士通常被划分为支持者或反对者 使用身体约束。由于道德和可行性问题， 随机对照试验将无法解决争议 围绕这个临床问题。 临床决策分析是 适用于制定和定量评估的方法 冲突的护理风格。 评估身体约束问题 与患者跌倒有关，提出了三个特定阶段：（1）至 召集一个国家专家小组，以达成共识 定量和评估决策分析所需的概率， （2）评估护士和老年患者的偏好 潜在的结果健康状况因跌倒和护理而产生 防止跌倒的方法，（3）做出正式决定 分析物理约束与替代护理管理的分析 防止护士和老年患者的先验跌落 在疗养院和综合医院环境中。 七 注册护士，在全国认可和出版 老年医学护理，已同意参加修改 专家共识意见的Delphi流程，该过程将填补= 医学和护理文献。 护士（n = 126）和老年患者 （n = 126）将从Nirsing Home and General Hospital恢复 设置。 获得口头同意后，每个患者都将被征服 完成简短的人群问卷并回答问题 关于身体约束和跌倒的先前经验。 这 将要求参与者对26的订单排序他们的偏好 健康结果的方案，代表健康的组合 结果是管理方法和/或 跌倒的后果。 评估临床决策分析 将使一种管理策略比另一个管理策略在 与健康成果的可能性和权衡的关系 健康结果偏好。 从个人角度，分开 决策分析将使用每个护士和老年人进行 患者的直接排名。 社会观点将进行检查 使用从联合分析得出的偏好值。 结果 这些决策分析将：（1）提供有关复合体的见解， 艰难的护理决定，是否限制老年人 有跌倒风险的患者，以及（2）帮助指导有关使用的政策 疗养院和综合医院环境中的身体限制。
