METHODS: Prospective observational study.
METHODS: and setting: Patients with a Braden scale score ≤16 on intensive care unit admission at five general hospitals in Korea were included in this study between February 2022 and March 2022.
METHODS: One hundred and twenty patients in acute settings were enrolled and categorized into two groups: a multi-form core mattress with a laminated cover group (n = 60) and an alternating air mattress overlay group (n = 60). Data were collected for 7 days by wound care nurses.
RESULTS: Pressure injury developed at a significantly lower rate in the multi-form core mattress with a laminated cover group (n = 4/60, 6.7 %) than in the alternating air mattress overlay group (n = 25/60, 25.0 %) (P = 0.011). Using a multi-foam core mattress with a laminated cover demonstrated a protective effect against pressure injuries (odds ratio 0.123, 95 % confidence interval 0.024-0.620, P = 0.011).
CONCLUSIONS: A multi-foam core mattress with a laminated cover was significantly more effective than an alternating air mattress overlay in preventing pressure injury in critically ill patients.
方法:前瞻性观察性研究。
方法:和设置:2022年2月至2022年3月期间,韩国五家综合医院重症监护病房的Braden量表评分≤16的患者被纳入本研究。
方法:纳入120名急性患者,将其分为两组:带有层压覆盖层的多形式芯床垫组(n=60)和交替充气床垫覆盖组(n=60)。由伤口护理护士收集7天的数据。
结果:与交替充气床垫覆盖组(n=25/60,25.0%)相比,具有层压覆盖组的多形式芯床垫的压力损伤发生率显着降低(P=0.011)。使用带有层压覆盖物的多泡沫芯床垫对压力伤害具有保护作用(比值比0.123,95%置信区间0.024-0.620,P=0.011)。
结论:在预防危重患者的压力损伤方面,具有层压覆盖物的多泡沫芯床垫明显比交替充气床垫覆盖物更有效。
