The easiest example of false imprisionment (as well as battery) is to apply restraints to a patient who has no order for restraints. Further, more recent court rulings have decided that sometimes, placing a patient in a "Geri Chair" with shoulder/pelvic restraint, plus Geri Chair tray can be considered imprisonment.
Another blatant example is placing a patient into a secluded room, such as on a psychiatric unit, without at least standing protocols signed by a physician.
In one court case (it was either a hospital or nursing home), a patient's family sued when an employee moved a patient in a wheelchair into a closet area to force patient compliance.

What is the difference between intentional and unintentional tort in the medical field?
The classic unintentional tort, in any field, is negligence. Negligence is an unintentional tort because the tortfeasor does not intend to cause harm, but, through careless behavior, does cause harm. In the medical field, negligence is generally called "malpractice" - when a doctor or other medical professional fails to exercise the proper skill, judgment, or care expected of such a professional, and through this failure, causes injury to a patient. An intentional tort in the medical field could include any intentional tort that someone can commit outside the medical field - such as assault, battery, false imprisonment, fraud, etc. An example of battery that could conceivably be committed by a doctor would be the doctor performing an operation that the patient did not consent to.
