I wont go there.... :) Oops, I did.
No, but seriously restraints are for the patients safety and the safety of the care providers. Its unfortunate that quick decisions must be made in ERs. I know I would react horribly to a high D2 AP -- Akathisia at the end of the Barnes Akathisia Scale, considering my short stay at an ER for vomiting/flu which ended in a quick decision to use Compazine (AAGH) and Benadryl that wore off before I left the ER. If only Ondansetron/Granisetron worked faster and didnt cost like $25 a dose. Actually I'd pay $25 not to have Compazine. Yes yes.
