[PMID: 37828368 DOI: 10.1038/s41393-023-00937-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Delphi Technique. OBJECTIVES Describe the development of a decision support tool to prevent community-acquired pressure injuries (CAPrIs) in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) for use in SCI clinics, called the Community-Acquired Pressure Injury Prevention-Field Implementation Tool (CAPP-FIT). SETTING Veteran Health Administration Hospital, Chicago, Illinois, USA. METHODS Concept mapping of current pressure injury (PrI) guidelines and qualitative research describing risks, actions, and resources needed to prevent CAPrIs associated with SCI were used to develop 40 veteran checklist items (Items) along with 37 associated provider actions (Actions) for the tool. The Delphi technique was used to refine Items and Actions with a panel of interprofessional SCI providers (n = 15), veterans with SCI (n = 4), and caregivers (n = 3) to determine consensus on a 4-point Likert scale (strongly agree-strongly disagree) for each Item and Action. A 75% agreement was set for responses rated as strongly agree or agree. RESULTS Panelists were 60% female, 62% White, 33% veterans with SCI or caregivers, 33% wound care certified with a mean age of 59 years. Two survey rounds were required for consensus for 41 Item and 38 Action CAPP-FIT. Response rate was 95% for both rounds. Delphi round 1 showed all but two Actions affirming agreement above 75%. Substantive comments from panelists required revision to 5 Items and 9 Actions and one additional Item/Actions related to coping, meeting threshold percent agreement in Round 2. CONCLUSIONS The CAPP-FIT could become a useful tool for Veterans living with SCI, caregivers, and SCI providers.

Rehabil Nurs 2023; 48:190-199.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to develop and pilot an educational curriculum for healthcare providers to better understand community-acquired pressure injury (CAPrI) prevention in veterans living with spinal cord injury (SCI). METHODS The Thomas six-step process model guided curricular development and evaluation. Curriculum development followed six steps: (1) problem identification and general needs assessment from a literature review and qualitative research triangulating provider and veteran perspectives of CAPrI prevention in SCI, (2) target needs assessment using a focus group with 14 experienced practicing interprofessional SCI providers, (3) creation of module goals and objectives with content review from experts ( n = 8), (4) development of curriculum content and educational strategies, (5) implementation of a pilot ( n = 4), and (6) evaluation of satisfaction and curriculum content via survey and focus group. RESULTS A five-module online curriculum was evaluated positively and is available publicly. Modules include (1) CAPrI Prevention Clinical Guidelines for the Provider, (2) CAPrI Prevention from the Veteran Perspective, (3) Building Collaborative Relationships, (4) Accessing Resources, and (5) Team Approach. Pilot participants stated objectives were met; they were satisfied with the module. The participants did recommend some changes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Understanding CAPrI prevention can inform rehabilitation nursing care. CONCLUSIONS An asynchronous educational curriculum can support nurses in integrating preventive care in community-dwelling veterans living with SCI.

Heywood-Everett S, Henderson R, Webb C, Bland AR. Psychosocial factors impacting community-based pressure ulcer prevention: A systematic review. Int J Nurs Stud 2023; 146:104561. [PMID: 37542960 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijnurstu.2023.104561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pressure ulcers are a major health concern. They have a significant impact on the healthcare system and individuals, reducing quality of life across several domains. In community settings, self-management behaviours are central to their prevention. However, adherence with pressure ulcer prevention guidelines remains low, with little evidence guiding the relationship between patients and healthcare professionals to establish a concordant partnership. OBJECTIVE To synthesise evidence on factors contributing to community-based pressure ulcer prevention using the Theoretical Domains Framework and the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour (COM-B) model of behaviour. DESIGN Mixed methods systematic review and narrative synthesis. METHOD Systematic searches were conducted in the CINAHL, Cochrane, EMBASE, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases on 14th December 2022. Studies were eligible if they contained data on the factors associated with adherence and concordance with pressure ulcer prevention guidelines in the community for patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. Methodological quality was assessed using the Hawker tool. Findings were synthesised using the Theoretical Domains Framework. The resulting themes were mapped onto the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour (COM-B) model. RESULTS Thirty studies were included in the review, including quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research. The synthesis identified 12 of the 14 Theoretical Domains Framework domains, with knowledge, social influences, beliefs about consequences, and beliefs about capabilities the most prevalent. Although knowledge appears to be an important contributor to adherence with prevention guidelines, knowledge alone does not appear sufficient to achieve concordance. A concordant relationship was facilitated by healthcare professionals' knowledge, motivation to work alongside patients and their priorities, and interpersonal skills to build rapport and trust, whilst barriers included lack of healthcare professional skills to navigate sensitive issues, paternalistic views of patient compliance and organisational processes that impact building rapport. CONCLUSIONS Several psychosocial factors may affect the ability to achieve concordance between individuals, caregivers and healthcare professionals with pressure ulcer prevention guidelines in the community. However, data regarding the efficacy of behaviour change interventions targeting these constructs is limited, with further research required to guide intervention development in this area.
