About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Pressure Injury Prevention Care Bundle Application in Intensive Care Unit Patients Diagnosed With Internal Diseases

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.

Read the detailed 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.

Control GroupNo interventionRoutine clinical care continued to be provided to the patients in the control group. Routine maintenance applications include the following parameters; 1. Risk assessment using Braden Risk Scale 2. Positioning 3. Elevate the heels.
Intervention GroupExperimentalA pressure injury care bundle was developed in line with the relevant literature. After the development of the bundle, a 30-minute training program was applied to the nurses on general information about pressure injuries, the pressure injury care bundle, and how to use the bundle. The training program was carried out in four separate sessions arranged according to the working schedules of 40 nurses providing services in ICU. Care Bundle include this parameters; 1. Risk Assessment 2. Skin Assessment 3. Skin Care 4. Positioning 5. Regulation of Nutrition and Liquid Management

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient Information Form

    The form prepared by the researcher includes questions inquiring about the sociodemographic and background information of the patients, clinical characteristics and laboratory results.

    Measured: 60 minutes

  2. Pressure Injury Prevention Care Bundle

    Care bundle includes risk assessment, skin assessment, skin care, repositioning, regulating nutrition and fluid intake.

    Measured: 3-4 weeks

  3. Braden Risk Assessment Tool

    With this tool, six parameters of the patient's stimulant perception, activity, mobility, the effect caused on the skin by humidity, friction, and shearing tension are measured.

    Measured: 1 hour

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Information Form (time frame: 60 minutes). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Sep 2022.
