What are the indications of restraint belt?

● Prevention of imminent violence by the patient or as a response to immediate, uncontrollable violence, with underlying mental disorders, with a serious risk to the safety of the patient or others.

● Only when less restrictive alternative measures have been ineffective or inappropriate, and where behavioural disorders lead to a substantial and imminent danger to the patient or others.

● Restraint is indicated exceptionally as a last resort, for a limited time and strictly necessary, after patient evaluation and only in the context of seclusion.

● The measure is completely justified clinically.
