Dimitri Beeckman University Centre fr Nursing and Midwifery Ghent University, Belgium Eurpean Pressure Ulcer Advisry Panel Chair f the Scientific Cmmittee FOCUS ON PRESSURE ULCERS Pressure ulcer publicatins/year ( ) N = = 70% /3 studies = preventin FOCUS ON PRESSURE ULCERS
2 FOCUS ON PRESSURE ULCERS Pressure ulcers are internatinally recgnized as adverse utcmes and key clinical indicatrs f the quality f care Nursing sensitive utcme = nursing actins are linked t the presence r absence f pressure ulcers Preventive actins are ne f the mst frequently applied interventins carried ut by nurses Significant impact n nursing resurces (e.g. patient repsitining) and budgets (e.g. high tech redistributing mattresses) CONTENT 1.

Micrclimate and its elements remain t be fully defined, and its relatinship t pressure ulcer develpment clearly characterised. Evidence t date suggests that extremes f skin Micrclimate temperature and/r humidity/skin misture appear t increase the sensitivity f skin t the damaging effects f pressure, shear stresses and Temperature n the frictin skin surface r tissue temperature Air humidityclark r the M. et humidity al.

Mattresses and repsitining: new insights and the limitatins f research RISK SCREENING Until 2012: 47 (prgnstic) studies Fcus: Braden, Nrtn, Waterlw, Cubbin- Jacksn: Lw very lw quality studies Lw prgnstic ability Better prgnstic ability fr tls which have been studied very limited Examples: Duglas scale, the Fragmment scale, the Sng and Chi scale, The Nrthern Hspital Pressure Ulcer Preventin Plan,...

RISK SCREENING 50% chance f a crrect assessment 50% change RISK f making SCREENING a MISTAKE! BUT: als difficulties were bserved when using the clinical experience Skin bersvatin: evidence is available (bt limited) = LISTEN OBSERVE MEASURE AND COMMUNICATE! 7

Pretest- psttest cmparisn (n= 719) Clinical judgment may be as effective as emplying a risk assessment scale t assess the risk f pressure ulcers ULCER Trial (Webster et al. 2011): What is the effectiveness f tw pressure-ulcer screening tls (Waterlw and Ramstadius scale) against clinical judgment in preventing pressure ulcers? Single blind randmised cntrlled trial (n= 1231) N evidence that tw cmmn pressure-ulcer risk-assessment tls are superir t clinical judgment t prevent pressure injury CONTENT 1.

14 MATTRESSES AND REPOSITIONING Recmmendatins Repsitining using the 30 tilted side-lying psitin is recmmended if the individual can tlerate it and her/his medical cnditin allws (back supprted and sacrum free) If sitting in a mre upright psitin in bed is needed, a head-f-bed elevatin f mre than 30 and (a subsequent) sluched psitin (increasing pressure and shear n the sacrum and cccyx) shuld be avided. A Semi-Fwler's psitin (the head f the bed at apprximately 30 and the knees in 30 flexin) shuld be used if the individual is lying in a supine psitin MATTRESSES AND REPOSITIONING Semi-Fwler Prne 30 Lateral 30 CONCLUSION New insights regarding etilgy = new preventin?
