About this trial
In this study, nurses will apply hand massage to patients who are physically restrained. It will be examined whether massage has a positive effect on patients' skin color, blood circulation, skin temperature and pain. Physical restraint will be applied to patients only in the presence of medical indications and with the decision of a physician.
Research question: Does hand massage applied to patients in physical restraint have an effect on preventing complications related to restraint?
