Long-term Outcomes in Older Patients With Physical Restraint

July 22, 2025 updated by: Prabakar VAITTINADA AYAR, Beaujon Hospital

The Association of Biological Sex and Long-term Outcomes in Older Patients With Physical Restraint at the Emergency Department

The worldwide population is ageing. Biological sex is first and foremost a genetic modifier of disease. To prevent self-arm many techniques can be used in older patients. Among them coercive measure consisting of physical restraint (PR) is one of the techniques.

This study aims to assess the effects of the biological sex on the long-term survival after PR in geriatric patients during the initial emergency department (ED) visit.

This retrospective study included patients between November 2019 to March 2021. All consecutive hospitalized patients after emergency department visit older than 75 years with PR were included.

The population was compared according to the biological sex. One-year all-cause mortality was plotted with the Kaplan-Meier curve. Hazard ratios (HRs) for 1-year mortality were calculated using a Cox proportional hazards regression model. Mortality was monitored over a 3-year period.
