Methods: The study was conducted in ICUs of Federal Hospitals in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia 2019. Hospital based descriptive cross sectional study design was carried out .By census a total of 126 nurse’s was interviewed by structured questionnaire. The data was checked for its completeness and was entered to epidata version 4.2 and analyzed using SPSS version 25 software with 95% CI and Pearson correlation coefficient and binary logistic regression analysis was used to find association Result: Majority of nurses was found to be aged between 21-30 years old, (62.5%) worked 2-5 years, and (83%) were degree graduates. Nurses’ knowledge score was 6.1 ±2.6 (50.8%), with possible range (0- 11), attitudes score was 14.1±3.1 (64%) with possible range (0-22), and practices score was 13.9± 3.8(63.18%), with possible range (0-22). Their demographical characteristics such as gender, working year and education levels were not significantly associated with knowledge, attitudes & practices (p>0.05) only age significantly associated with practice and knowledge with lack of a written policy & guideline and not being trained on application of physical restraint. Also practice associated with knowledge & attitude.
