Abstract

The usual psychogeriatric clinical practice regarding elderly patients with or without dementia living at home or in an institu- tion has been questioned in recent years. The reason is the frequent use of physical and chemical restraints in this population. This article focusses on chemical restraints, the most unknown measure of them, when an inappropriate use of psychoactive drugs occurs. We review reasons, dynamics and so- lutions for restraints `s use and when the use of a drug can be considered a chemical res- traint. In addition, we summarize the most important aspects of the CHROME criteria, the first initiative in Spain to systematize the chemical restraints use.
