Sci Rep 2024; 14:17290. [PMID: 39068246 PMCID: PMC11283476 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67026-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Pressure ulcers are a serious concern in patients with prolonged bedtime and present with common complications following surgery. It is one of the key performance indicators of the quality of nursing care provided to patients. Several studies have reported the prevalence of pressure ulcers in Ethiopia, but the current study area has not yet been fully addressed. Hence, the study aims to assess pressure ulcers and their associated factors among adult patients admitted to the surgical ward. An institution-based, cross-sectional study was conducted from April 15 to May 15, 2023. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select 480 patients. A standardized, pre-tested, and structured questionnaire was used. The results were presented descriptively using tables and figures. A binary logistic regression was used to assess associated factors. From a total of 480, all patients have participated with a 100% response rate. The prevalence rate of pressure ulcers was 10.2%. Being smoker [95% CI AOR 7.46 (2.64, 21.06)], bedridden [95% CI AOR 3.92 (1.28, 11.66)], having a length of hospital stay of greater than 20 days [95% CI AOR 3.01 (1.13, 8.02)], experiencing pain [95% CI AOR 3.20 (1.06, 7.51)], or having friction and shear [95% CI AOR 5.71 (1.91, 17.08)], were significantly associated with pressure ulcers. This study showed that a considerable proportion of patients had pressure ulcers. Smoking, having pain, being bedridden, being exposed to friction and shear problems, and length of hospital stay were significantly associated with pressure ulcers. Healthcare providers should educate patients about smoking risks, pain management, mattress installation, and linen care.

[PMID: 38965753 DOI: 10.1111/nicc.13117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nurses are vital in identifying and preventive pressure injuries (PIs) in hospitalized patients undergoing open heart surgery. Interventions to prevent PIs are crucial for every critical patient, and it's essential to recognize that preventing PIs involves a complex intervention. AIM To examine the nursing interventions for the prevention of PI in patients with open heart surgery. METHOD A systematic review study. Web of Science, Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus, MEDLINE Ultimate, CINAHL Ultimate, ULAKBIM, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar and university library databases were scanned. The initial search performed in the databases was updated on 4 February 2023, and on 7 April 2024, for potential publications included in that period. Data between February 2013 and April 2024 were scanned. The databases were searched with the keywords 'pressure injury', 'nursing interventions' and 'open heart surgery'. The systematic compilation process was carried out in accordance with the guidelines in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guide. RESULTS Seventeen studies were examined using nursing interventions that applied to the selected study population. Care packages included an inflatable head pad, a pressure sensor mattress cover, multi-layer silicone foam, pressure-reducing coatings, endotracheal tube (ETT) repositioning and cuff pressure regulation. Interventions to reduce PI in open heart surgery patients are applied in the preadmission, perioperative and postoperative periods. CONCLUSION It was concluded that care packages, inflatable head pads, pressure sensor bedspreads, multi-layered silicone foam, pressure-reducing covers, ETT repositioning and cuff pressure regulation were effective in all nursing interventions. The strength of the available evidence was rated from strong to weak. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE These findings reveal an efficient combination of multi-component nursing interventions for preventing PIs in planning patient care in the intensive care. The interventions that are used throughout the patient's entire care process are crucial for the prevention of PIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the alleviating effect of standardized three-step nursing on perioperative pressure injury in patients with spinal fractures accompanied by spinal cord injury. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 153 patients who underwent surgical treatment for spinal fracture accompanied by spinal cord injury in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2024. All patients met the criteria for inclusion and exclusion. According to the nursing interventions received during the perioperative period, the patients were divided into a control group (n = 76) and an observation group (n = 77). The control group received routine nursing interventions during the perioperative period, while the observation group received standardized three-step nursing interventions. The occurrence, severity, area, and pain [Visual Analog Scale (VAS)], coagulation indicators [prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen (FIB), D-dimer (D-D)], activities of daily living [Barthel Index], and quality of life [General Quality of Life Inventory (GQOLI-74)] were compared between the two groups. RESULTS (1) Occurrence and severity of perioperative pressure injury: in the control group, 18 cases of pressure injury occurred, including 5 cases of stage I, 11 cases of stage II, and 2 cases of stage III; in the observation group, 7 cases of pressure injury occurred, including 4 cases of stage I and 3 cases of stage II. The occurrence rate and severity of pressure injury in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05). (2) Area of injury and pain: The area of injury on the day of surgery and 5 days after surgery in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (p < 0.05); the VAS score 5 days after surgery in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (p < 0.05). (3) Coagulation indicators: 5 days after surgery, the levels of D-D and FIB in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, while PT was higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05). (4) Activities of daily living and quality of life: 3 months after surgery, the Barthel score and GQOLI-74 score in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Standardized three-step nursing can significantly reduce the occurrence rate, severity, and area of perioperative pressure injury in patients with spinal fracture accompanied by spinal cord injury, alleviate patient pain, improve coagulation function, and enhance levels of activities of daily living and quality of life.

Impact of shear stress on sacral pressure injury from table rotation during laparoscopic colorectal surgery performed in the lithotomy position. Sci Rep 2024; 14:9748. [PMID: 38679609 PMCID: PMC11056377 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60424-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of shear stress on surgery-related sacral pressure injury (PI) after laparoscopic colorectal surgery performed in the lithotomy position. We included 37 patients who underwent this procedure between November 2021 and October 2022. The primary outcome was average horizontal shear stress caused by the rotation of the operating table during the operation, and the secondary outcome was interface pressure over time. Sensors were used to measure shear stress and interface pressure in the sacral region. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of PI. PI had an incidence of 32.4%, and the primary outcome, average horizontal shear stress, was significantly higher in the PI group than in the no-PI group. The interface pressure increased over time in both groups. At 120 min, the interface pressure was two times higher in the PI group than in the no-PI group (PI group, 221.5 mmHg; no-PI group, 86.0 mmHg; p < 0.01). This study suggested that shear stress resulting from rotation of the operating table in the sacral region by laparoscopic colorectal surgery performed in the lithotomy position is the cause of PI. These results should contribute to the prevention of PI.

Prevention of Postoperative Skin Disorders and Pressure Injuries in the Neurosurgical Park Bench Position Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study. Cureus 2024; 16:e58552. [PMID: 38765353 PMCID: PMC11102086 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.58552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Background In neurosurgical procedures where the park bench position is employed, the risk of perioperative pressure injuries is elevated due to the limited contact surface area, with the head and part of the upper torso extending beyond the surgical table. This study aimed to examine the effects of preventative measures against such injuries, proposing a potential standard for postural fixation in these surgeries. Methods Conducted at a medical center, from January 2017 to March 2023, this prospective cohort study involved participants aged 20 and above who underwent neurosurgical procedures in the park bench position under general anesthesia. The focus was on comparing the incidence of pressure injuries between intervention and control groups. The study adhered to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines. Results Out of 65 patients enrolled, 28 were assigned to each of the intervention and control groups. The control group experienced 17 instances of postoperative pressure injuries and skin disorders in areas prone to pressure, such as the axillary and greater trochanter regions. Conversely, the intervention group reported no such incidents, underscoring the efficacy of meticulous surgical positioning and management of bodily pressure, temperature, humidity, and microclimate. Conclusion Implementing preventive measures in neurosurgical park bench procedures significantly reduces the incidence of postoperative pressure injuries and skin disorders. These findings advocate for the adoption of standardized postural fixation protocols in such surgeries, potentially influencing global clinical practices in neurosurgery.

Abstract
The correlation between sub-epidermal moisture (SEM) and other early indicators of pressure ulcer (PU) development is yet to be determined. This three-part series aims to bridge this knowledge gap, through investigating SEM and its correlation with evidence-based technologies and assessments. This article focuses on the correlation between SEM and ultrasound. A prospective cohort observational study was undertaken between February and November 2021. Patients undergoing three surgery types were consecutively enrolled to the study following informed consent. Assessments were performed prior to and following surgery for 3 days at the sacrum, both heels and a control site, using a SEM scanner and high-frequency ultrasound scanner (5-15 MHz). Spearman's rank (rs ) explored the correlation between SEM and ultrasound. A total of 60 participants were included; 50% were male with a mean age of 58 years (±13.46). A statistically significant low to moderately positive correlation was observed between SEM and ultrasound across all anatomical sites (rs range = 0.39-0.54, p < 0.05). The only exception was a correlation between SEM and ultrasound on day 0 at the right heel (rs = 0.23, p = 0.09). These results indicate that SEM and ultrasound agreed in the presence of injury; however, SEM was able to identify abnormalities before ultrasound.

Abstract
Due to prolonged forced positioning, the incidence of intraoperative pressure injuries is high. This study aimed to explore the impact of small-molecule antiplatelet drugs on pressure injuries by locally applying them before an injury occurs. In the first part of this study, water-soluble tracers with different molecular weights were applied to normal and early-stage pressure-injured skin. Through digital cameras, spectrophotometers, and histological observations, the penetration of tracers into the epidermis was clarified. In the second part of this study, a water-soluble antiplatelet drug called Trapidil (molecular weight = 205 Da) was applied to the left side of the back of a rat before, during, and after compression, and the contralateral side served as a non-intervention control group. The differences in pressure injuries between the two groups were observed through a digital camera, an ultraviolet camera, and temperature measurement, and skin circulation and perfusion were assessed via an intravenous injection of Evans Blue. The first part of this study found that water-soluble tracers did not easily penetrate normal skin but could more easily penetrate pressure-damaged skin. The smaller the molecular weight of the tracer, the easier it penetrated the skin. Therefore, in the next step of research, water-soluble drugs with smaller molecular weights should be selected. The second part of this study found that, compared with the control group, the occurrence rates and areas of ulcers were lower, the gray value was higher, and the skin temperature was lower in the Trapidil group (p < 0.05). After the intravenous Evans Blue injection, skin circulation and perfusion in the Trapidil group were found to be better. In conclusion, this study found that the topical skin application of a small-molecule antiplatelet agent may have significant effects against pressure injuries by improving post-decompression ischemia, providing new insights into the prevention and treatment of intraoperative pressure injuries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the various influencing factors for intraoperative pressure sores in patients with craniocerebral microsurgery and provide nursing intervention strategies for surgical pressure sores in a clinical operating room. METHODS This was a case-control study on 2157 patients who underwent craniocerebral microsurgery in the craniocerebral department of the hospital between November 2021 and November 2022. Of these, 62 patients with intraoperative pressure sores were compared with 248 patients without pressure sores during the same period using a 1:4 case-control method. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the effect of possible factors on pressure sores in an operating room. RESULTS The incidence of pressure sores in craniocerebral microsurgery was 2.87%. The logistic regression analysis showed that skin at the pressure site [odds ratio (OR) = 1.759, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.137-2.721], surgical position (OR = 1.727, 95% CI: 1.338-2.228), intraoperative body temperature (OR = 2.229, 95% CI: 1.229-4.042), and surgical time (OR = 2.009, 95% CI: 1.221-3.303) were independent factors for the occurrence of intraoperative pressure sores. CONCLUSIONS The high-risk factors for pressure sores in craniocerebral microsurgery included fasting time, surgical position, intraoperative temperature, and skin at the pressure site. Targeted attention and protection had a positive effect in preventing intraoperative pressure sores in patients who underwent craniocerebral microsurgery.

Data were collected through a Patient Descriptive Information Form (PDIF) and the 3S Intraoperative Pressure Injury Risk Assessment Scale (IPIRAS). RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 44.15 ± 17.00, and 52.4% were female. In addition, it was determined that the mean 3S IPIRAS score was higher in patients who were male, were aged ≥60 years, were obese, had a chronic disease, and had low serum albumin and hemoglobin levels (p < .05). During the surgery of the patients included in the study, support surfaces were used in 67.6%, positioning aids were used in 82.4%, and 55.6% had normal skin. Patients who underwent CVS procedures for more than 6 h, did not use support surfaces during surgery, had moist skin, or used vasopressors had higher and significantly different mean 3S IPIRAS scores (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS According to the results, all surgical patients were at risk for pressure injury in the intraoperative period. In addition, it was found that male gender was associated with risk factors and that being aged ≥60 years, obesity, chronic disease, low serum hemoglobin and albumin levels, CVS, operations lasting more than 6 h, moist skin, vasopressor drugs, and not using support surfaces during surgery increased the risk of pressure injuries significantly.
