Abstract (sommario):
[Truncated abstract] Pressure ulcers affect a substantial proportion of patients admitted to health care services worldwide imposing considerable physical, social and economic burdens on patients and communities. As largely preventable wounds their prevalence is likely to escalate as the life expectancy and incidence of people living longer with other chronic diseases increases. Clinical practice guidelines are promulgated as evidence-based tools to assist clinicians and patients to determine care strategies, reduce inequities in healthcare provision and lower the burden of illness through imp

Abstract (sommario):
There are many terms used to describe pressure ulcers: pressure sores, decubitus ulcers, bedsores, and pressure necrosis or ischaemic ulcers. Essentially they all describe damage to the patient's skin and underlying tissue. The nursing literature abounds with information about the risk, grading, prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. These ulcers are a problem in hospital and long term care facilities, and are a major cause of morbidity. In the hospital setting they contribute to an extended length of stay and by doing so 'block' the bed for use by another patient. The ulcers are difficu

Abstract (sommario):
Background Pressure ulcer prevention has been an important and a common health care problem in every health care setting. Pressure ulcers are the clinical situation that can be avoided. To prevent pressure ulcer, the main strategy is to reduce either the pressure contact time, or magnitude of pressure, between a patient and his or her support surface. Pressure-relieving support surfaces are shown to be effective in preventing the development of pressure ulcer with strong evidence support.

Abstract (sommario):
Background Pressure ulcer is one of many health problems in the healthcare system. Pressure ulcer prolongs the suffering of patients and the cost of treating them is high. In 2006, in the USA almost US$11 billion was spent on hospitalizations in which the patient was dignosed with pressure ulcer as primary or secondary causes, excluding neonatal and maternal conditions. This reflects an increase of nearly 80% since 1993. Most pressure ulcers are potentially preventable; early and proper intervention to high risk groups can decrease the incidence of newly developed pressure ulcer and its cons

Surveys were performed of: prevalence of sores; equipment for pressure relief; knowledge and opinions of aetiology, recommended use of equipment, and risk assessment.

Although pressure ulcers appear to occur infrequently in children, they can have serious consequences such as infection, scarring and changes to body image. This thesis is an account of the development of an instrument to help nurses to identify children most at risk of pressure ulcers, and take preventative action. Prior to 1996, there were very few publications on the problem of pressure ulcers in children; these were mainly anecdotal, or concerned with specialised populations.

Semi-structured interviews were used to gather data from participants (n=16) who were recruited from the non-acute adult medical wards of 14 hospitals in one NHS Trust and a local university. The participants were asked to talk about their experiences of preventing and managing pressure ulcers and their values were elicited from their accounts. The data were analysed and interpreted with Straussian grounded theory. Nurses were found to work according to the value that they placed on pres

Older adults are particularly vulnerable to the development of pressure ulcers (PUs) as a result of skin changes and reduced mobility (Knox, Anderson & Anderson, 1994; Russell et al., 2003).

Using an information processing approach, this study examines how nurses working in the area of continuing care for older people in Scotland use the Waterlow scale to inform their judgement and decision making in risk of pressure ulcers and plan of care. While assessment tools are commonly used, a number of assumptions surround their use for nurse practice and for patient care. To date, there appears to be no research which actually examines how nurses use assessment tools to assess patient's needs and plan care, despite the emphasis placed on evidence based practice.
