简要总结
King Abdullah medical city has a cardiac center, and a lot of open-heart surgeries are performed there, and both polyurethane foam (pink Pad) and Mepilex dressing are applied to those patients. Therefore, the present study was designed to compare the effects of polyurethane foam (pink Pad) versus Mepilex dressing for prevention of pressure ulcer in operating room.
详细描述
There are two types of intervention available in King Abdullah medical city for operating room pressure ulcer prevention. Polyurethane foams (Pink Pad) are a single use system for use in surgical procedures. The system consists of a proprietary formulation for the pink foam pad, non-woven lift sheet, body straps, head rests, and boot liners. It aids hospital facilities in providing a safe and effective method of management of the patient for pressure ulcers and non-movement for patients in the Trendelenburg position.
Mepilex Border Sacrum dressings are self-adherent, multilayer foam dressings designed for use on sacrum aiming to prevent pressure ulcers. The dressings are used in addition to standard care protocols for pressure ulcer prevention.
All included patients received standard PU prevention according to hospital protocols, based on contextualization and adaptation of International guidelines ( European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, 2021 ), which involved: assessment of PU risk through the Braden Scale at hospital admission,
