Clinical Trial Summary

Aim: The study was conducted in order to evaluate of pressure injury prevention care bundle application in intensive care unit patients diagnosed with internal diseases. Background: Although a pressure injury is a problem that requires treatment for a long time and takes time to heal, it is possible to prevent it with appropriate interventions. Evidence for the prevention of pressure injuries suggests using evidence-based guidelines or care bundles. Design: Quasi-experimental and control group study. Methods: The study was conducted on 98 patients, 49 in the control group and 49 in the intervention group, diagnosed with internal diseases and hospitalized in the intensive care unit of a training and research hospital between July-December 2021. In the collection of the study data, patient information form, pressure injury prevention care bundle tool, and Braden Risk Scale were used. While routine clinical care continued to be provided to the patients in the control group, pressure injury prevention care bundle was applied to the patients in the intervention group.


Clinical Trial Description

As preventing the development of pressure injury is a parameter that shows the quality of care, the most significant responsibility in preventing pressure injury belongs to nurses. Pressure injury develops as a result of inadequate nursing care and not routinely applying evidence-based planned care in preventing pressure injury. In this sense, nurses can prevent the development of pressure injury by evaluating the patient holistically and applying evidence-based preventive pressure injury care. Although a pressure injury is a problem that requires treatment for a long time and takes time to heal, it is possible to prevent it with appropriate interventions.In this context, European Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (EPIAP) and National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) determined several preventive stages in order to prevent pressure injuries, such as risk assessment, skin assessment and care, repositioning, using pressure reducing surfaces, protection from incontinence, nutrition and fluid support, and training . Evidence for the prevention of pressure injuries suggests using evidence-based guidelines or care bundles. Care bundle is an organized and medical regulations-based set of applications that promotes compliance with guidelines and increases the quality of care by facilitating the provision of evidence-based care. In the present study, it was aimed to prevent the development of pressure injuries by applying the prepared pressure injury prevention bundle care to the patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit patients diagnosed with internal diseases and thus to determine the effectiveness of the care bundle. ;
