Answer to Question 1

B
A survey of more than 50 emergency psychiatric services found that restraints were used in less than 10 of clients presenting with acute psychosis, and that when applied these were used for a mean of 3.3 hours. These data suggest that many centers are appropriately conservative in their use of restraints, applying them rarely and for only limited periods of time.

Answer to Question 2

T
