Clinical Trial Summary

Pressure ulcers represent a major health issue because of their high incidence and their important consequences. There is an important risk of pressure ulcer acquisition for ICU patients with acute organ failure(s). Specific risk factors identified in ICU are immobility, which accentuates the effects of friction and shears, as well as mechanical ventilation and the use of vasopressors. A repositioning schedule is a guideline for pressure ulcer prevention, but repositioning frequency remains unknown. Adaptation of the repositioning schedule to pressure ulcer risk assessment using Braden scale should decrease the emergence of pressure ulcer. This could limit their important consequences for ICU patients which add to their brittle clinical condition (infection, increased length of stay, mortality…).


Description:

This is a multicenter randomized controlled cluster, parallel open study. In order to avoid a contamination bias between groups, this trial will be randomized at the center level. This randomization will lead to the formation of 2 groups: a group of control centers (usual care) and a group of interventional centers (repositioning schedule). A visit to set up the study will be carried out before the beginning of the inclusions. During this visit, a training course will be delivered to the caregivers of all the research centers on the risk assessment of pressure ulcers using the Braden scale, the evaluation of the skin condition, the identification of the stages of pressure and their management as well as the collection of data necessary for this study. In addition, the interventional group centers will receive training on the application of the repositioning schedule. The risk assessment for pressure ulcers using the Braden scale will be performed daily in both groups. All patients participating in research with a Braden scale ≤ 17 will benefit from a pressure ulcer prevention mattress. Usual care: Within the control group, repositioning schedule frequencies and positioning will be done according to the habits of the service. The daily collection form present in the room will collect information concerning the care related to the positioning of the patient (length of treatment, frequency of positioning, type of positioning, any adverse events occurring during this care), the evaluation of the patients 'cutaneous status, duration of pressure ulcer care and evaluation of the Braden scale. The possible contraindications to the positioning of the patients will be informed by the doctors on the medical prescription according to the current practice. Repositioning schedule: Within the interventional group the repositioning schedule will be applied according to the risk of pressure ulcer evaluated daily by the Braden scale. A medical prescription, as part of the care, will attest to the absence of absolute contraindication or relative to the procedure of mobilization. Depending on the result of the Braden scale, the repositioning schedule is defined as follows: 6 ≥ Braden ≤ 8: alternate positioning every 2 hours; 9 ≥Braden ≤ 13: alternate positioning every 4 hours; 14 ≥ Braden ≤ 17: No alternative of the positioning required, but a friction and an evaluation of the cutaneous state every 6 hours. 18 ≥Braden ≤ 23: No alternative of the positioning required, but a friction and an evaluation of the cutaneous state every 12 hours

Intervention

Procedure:
Positioning schedule
The Braden scale will be collected every morning. Patients' care will be friction and repositioning applied at a frequency defined by the Braden scale: 6 = Braden = 8: alternate positioning every 2 hours 9 =Braden = 13: alternate positioning every 4 hours 14 = Braden = 17: No alternative of the positioning required, but a friction and an evaluation of the cutaneous state every 6 hours. 18 =Braden = 23: No alternative of the positioning required, but a friction and an evaluation of the cutaneous state every 12 hours. Positioning will alternate semi-lateral decubitus at 30, semi-Fowler 30° -30°, half-sitting position 45° with elevation of the lower limbs. A medical prescription as part of the daily reassessed care will ensure the absence of absolute contraindication to the mobilization or contraindication to certain positions.Friction will be performed during repositioning.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary The proportion of pressure ulcer at day 28 To assess the efficacy of a positioning schedule whose frequency of positioning is adapted every day to pressure ulcer risk assessed by the Braden scale and to the clinical state of the patient in adult ICUs, compared to usual PU prevention management (without schedule daily adapted to PU risk) at the 28th day, or when leaving ICU, or at death if it occurs before.
Efficacy of the procedure will be measured by the proportion of pressure ulcer at day 28 or at ICU discharge or death if it occurs before.
Up to 28 days
Secondary Tolerance of a repositioning schedule in adult intensive care unit Tolerance of the procedure will be appreciated by the proportion of adverse events that occurred during repositioning.
The adverse events are:
accidental removal of invasive devices (intubation probe, catheter, drain, gastric tube, urinary catheter);
the occurrence of hemodynamic or respiratory instability ( Heart rate <40 or > 130 / min, Systolic Blood Pressure <90 mmHg, oxygen saturation <90%) necessitating stopping repositioning.
Up to 28 days
Secondary Impact of repositioning schedule on the length of hospitalization in intensive care unit Length of intensive care unit stay Up to 28 days
Secondary Evaluate the applicability of a repositioning schedule and clinical barriers to patients' repositioning schedule Analysis of the correlation between the realization of the repositioning schedule and the characteristics of the patients, the SOFA and SAPS2 scores, the administration of support therapies (mechanical ventilation, vasoactive drugs, renal replacement therapy purification, ECCO2R, ECMO) and the medical and paramedical contraindications provided by caregivers and physicians on the daily collection form. Up to 28 days
Secondary Risk factors for pressure ulcer on critically ill patients Identify the factors leading to the development of a pressure ulcer by completing a daily collection form. Up to 28 days
Secondary Impact of a repositioning schedule on the time spent caring for alternate position procedure prevention in adult intensive care units Care time dedicated to the prevention in adult ICU evaluated by the positioning times in the care of positioning reported on the daily collection form. Up to 28 days
Secondary Impact of a repositioning schedule on the management of bedsores in adult intensive care units Management of pressure ulcers in adult ICU evaluated by the number of caregivers involved in the care of positioning reported on the daily collection form. Up to 28 days
Secondary Impact of a repositioning schedule on invasive care therapy for pressure ulcers Proportion of pressure ulcers requiring one of the following: surgical intervention, negative pressure wound therapy (VAC), antibiotic treatment; Up to 28 days
Secondary total cost of the procedure and cost per pressure ulcer avoided Impact of the repositioning schedule on hospital costs and the occurrence of pressure ulcers will be compared through cost-effectiveness analysis and budget impact analysis. We will perform an analysis for staff cost and an analysis for the hospital cost per patient. Up to 28 days
