Abstract
Medical devices, such as non-invasive ventilation masks, save lives in health care settings but can be a cause of tissue injuries due to the pressure and shear loads on skin and soft tissue. These pressure injuries could be painful for the individual and cause a significant economic impact on healthcare providers. In the etiology of device related pressure ulcers, inflammation plays an important role. However, the exact nature and timing of inflammatory biomarker upregulation is still unknown in the early stages of skin damage. This study aimed to explore the inflammatory profile of vulnerable skin sites following non-invasive mask application on a convenience sample of eleven hospital patients. Seventy-one inflammatory proteins were explored from sebum sampled at the skin surface after oronasal mask application. A multivariate analysis to investigate differences between loaded and control site was conducted, with a protein network analysis used to explore interactions in the early inflammation. The study revealed that 21 cytokines and chemokines were important for the separation between loaded and control site. These proteins were associated with remodeling of tissue, vascular wound healing and/or cell death.

Lyu Y, Cui H, Liu Y, Lin F. Current perception and knowledge of preventing medical device related pressure injury among nursing staff in intensive care units: A national descriptive cross-sectional study. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 82:103656. [PMID: 38359599 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2024.103656] [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: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sufficient knowledge is crucial for nurses in intensive care unit to prevent medical device related pressure injuries. This study was aimed to explore the Chinese intensive care nurses' perceptions and knowledge of medical device related pressure injury prevention and identify associated factors. METHODS This descriptive cross-sectional study included a convenience sample of 1286 intensive care nurses recruited from professional networks across China. Participants completed the demographic data form and the adapted 23-item Medical device related pressure injury Knowledge Assessment Questionnaire (MKAQ) questionnaire. Multiple linear regression was used to determine the associated factors. RESULTS The medical device related pressure injury knowledge assessment questionnaire scores among intensive care nurses were relatively high, with a correct rate of 78.3 %. Multiple regression analysis revealed that management position (β = 0.131, P < 0.001) was the strongest associated factor of knowledge scores, followed by academic position (β = 0.114, P = 0.009) and received training on medical device related pressure injury (β = 0.112, P < 0.001). Hospital level (β = 0.087, P = 0.004) and sex (β = 0.068, P = 0.016) were also significant associated factors. Collectively, these five variables accounted for 18.2 % of the variance in knowledge scores. CONCLUSION Sufficient knowledge is a prerequisite for safe nursing practice. Although nurses demonstrated relatively high level of knowledge, it is essential for nursing managers to implement specific measures to enhance the knowledge among junior nursing staff, especially in non-tertiary hospitals, to promote medical device related pressure injury prevention in all intensive care settings. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE This study highlights the importance of sociodemographic and professional characteristics in promoting satisfactory perception and knowledge of preventing medical device related pressure injury among intensive care nurses. It is necessary for nurse managers and leaders to develop strategic interventions, along with targeted training programs and quality improvement plans that correspond to the actual training needs to improve the medical device related pressure injury prevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence and risk factors of medical device-related pressure injury (MDRPI) in the ICU. METHODS In this descriptive study, the researchers collected data through systematic observation of patients (n = 58) in the ICU. The patients were evaluated within 24 hours of ICU admission and then followed up until they were discharged. A total of 482 patient-days were followed. The researchers used the MDRPI follow-up form, the patient descriptive form, the MDRPI follow-up form, and the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk for data collection. RESULTS Overall, 39.7% of the 58 patients hospitalized in the ICU developed an MDRPI, and 5.2% of the MDRPIs were evaluated as stage 2. These injuries occurred in an average of 5 days after the patient was admitted to the ICU. Among the MDRPIs that developed, 31.9% were located in the nose, 21.3% in the mouth, and 14.9% on the cheeks. Intubation tubes were used in 7.3% of the patients, nasogastric tubes in 22.4% of the patients, and radial artery catheters in 10.5% of the patients. CONCLUSIONS The development of MDRPI is correlated with the type of medical device used. Providers should establish a planned care protocol based on the anatomic placement of the medical device and take necessary precautions to prevent MDRPI.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to determine the incidence, severity and characteristics of medical device-related pressure injuries in intensive care units. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study. Data were collected from 187 patients admitted to the Anaesthesia and Reanimation intensive care unit of a university hospital between January and May 2023. The skin of the patients enrolled in the study was assessed for the presence of medical device-related pressure injuries, and all medical devices used were recorded. Data were collected using the Patient Identification Form, the Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury Follow-up Form, and the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk. RESULTS It was found that 30.6% of the patients developed medical device-related pressure injuries; of these, 73.7% had stage I pressure injuries. We found that 36.8% of the patients were diagnosed with medical device-related pressure injuries within 8-11 days. The results showed that endotracheal tube (61.4%), non-invasive ventilation/oxygen mask (52.6%), Foley catheter (49.1%), and nasogastric tube (36.8%) devices were the most common causes of the development of medical device-related pressure injuries. Patients' demographic characteristics were found to have a significant effect on the development of medical device-related pressure injuries (p < .05). CONCLUSION The study found that the incidence of medical device-related pressure injuries was relatively high and that a relationship was observed between the patients' demographic characteristics and medical device-related pressure injuries. It is crucial that ICU nurses, who are more likely to encounter medical device-related pressure injuries, consider these factors when caring for their patients and take appropriate preventive measures to reduce the incidence of these injuries.

Abstract
AIM To describe published work on the current situation of mucosal membrane pressure injury of patients in the intensive care unit. BACKGROUND Device-related pressure injuries in critically ill patients are mostly focused on skin surface injuries, and less attention is paid to mucosal membrane pressure injury. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library from database construction until March 1, 2023. Two researchers independently screened and extracted data. RESULTS Eighteen articles met our criteria and were published in 2014-2023. The included studies showed that the incidence of mucosal membrane pressure injury in critically ill patients ranged from 0.83% to 88.2%, and the prevalence ranged from 0.16% to 55.6%. The most frequently reported site of mucosal injury is the oral mucosa, followed by the nasal mucosa. Ten studies used Braden to assess the risk of mucosal membrane pressure injury, and only six studies reported specific stages of mucosal membrane pressure injury. Thirteen studies described 30 risk factors for mucosal membrane pressure injury, with albumin being the most frequently reported risk factor, followed by the vasoconstrictive drugs use. Thirty risk factors were summarized in six aspects: medical device-related factors, disease-related factors, treatment- related factors, physiological and biochemical parameters, demographic-related factors, and microbial colonisation. CONCLUSIONS The incidence or prevalence of mucosal membrane pressure injury varies widely, and specific risk assessment tools and standardized staging criteria need to be further determined. The risk factors of mucosal membrane pressure injury involve multiple aspects, and some risk factors have only been explored in few studies and need to be further verified, in order to detect the risk group of mucosal membrane pressure injury early and take targeted preventive measures. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE We synthesized the current research status of mucosal membrane pressure injury in critically ill patients, which can provide a valuable reference for the clinical staff to develop preventive and management measures for such patients.

Abstract
Background The incidence of ulcer pressure in the high care unit (HCU) was relatively high and could be reliably predicted using tools such as the Norton and Jackson/Cubbin scales. However, other risk factors, such as age, gender, consciousness, systemic condition, duration of treatment, and use of restraint, may contribute to the occurrence of ulcer pressure. This study was conducted to analyze the relationship of various risk factors for pressure ulcers and prediction of ulcer pressure, using Norton and Jackson/Cubbin scale, to incident pressure ulcers in HCU patient. Methods This study utilized a prospective cross-sectional study design to analyze various risk factors for ulcer pressure development in a patient admitted to the HCU, including age, gender, blood profile, consciousness, duration of treatment, and use of restraint. The Norton and Jackson/Cubbin scale was employed to predict pressure ulcers. The relationship between the risk factors and the prediction of pressure ulcer incidents was evaluated using multiple logistic binary regression analysis. Result Both the Norton and Jackson/Cubbin scales predicted a lower risk of pressure ulcer development (60.98 and 99.02%, respectively). This prediction is consistent with the low incidence of pressure injuries found, which is only 4.39%. Furthermore, the relationship between the identified risk factor (gender, duration of treatment in HCU and use of restraint) and the prediction and incident of pressure ulcer was not significant ( p > 0.05). Thus, it is suggested that these risk factors may not strong predictors of pressure ulcer development. Conclusion This study's result indicated no significant relationship exists between possible identified risk factors and the development of pressure ulcers in HCU patients. However, the Norton and Jackson/Cubbin scales were reliable predictors of pressure ulcer occurrence, with both scales predicting a lower risk of pressure ulcer development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with long-term ventricular assist devices (VAD) are predisposed to infection, bleeding, and pressure injuries at the insertion of the driveline. There is no consensus on a driveline dressing protocol. Chlorhexidine is often used to clean the driveline exit site and has been associated with lower rates of infection. For driveline coverage, bacteriostatic agents and transparent film have shown good results, but are costly. The same issue was associated with anchorage devices. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the types of dressings used in the driveline of patients using HeartMate (HM) and to describe the incidence density of local complications (infection, bleeding, and pressure injury) within 30 days postoperatively. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted and included 22 patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit after implantation of HM II and III in a Brazilian private hospital. RESULTS Several types of dressings were used in the drivelines. There were 22 different types of dressings. Dressing type 6 (Chlorhexidine, Excilon, Gauze and IV3000) were the most used (45.4%). Subjects using the Flexi-Trak anchoring device had a higher rate of local bleeding (50.0%) and those who used the Hollister device had more infection (61.1%) and pressure injury associated with a medical device (11.1%), compared to others. Infection was the primary complication (45.4%), followed by local bleeding (27.7%). CONCLUSION Despite the high variability of products used in the driveline of patients using HeartMate, the dressing made with chlorhexidine, silver-impregnated absorbent foam and transparent film, and the use of anchoring devices was the most frequently used. Infection was the most common complication.

Abstract
AIMS To identify the characteristics of device-related pressure injuries (DRPI) in general ward inpatients, and to confirm the DRPI risk factors by examining differences between a DRPI and non-DRPI group. METHODS This study is a retrospective case-control study. High-risk adult patients for pressure injuries (rated at 16 points or less on the Braden scale) who were admitted to a general ward of a tertiary general hospital in South Korea from January 1 to September 30, 2021 were enrolled in this study. Among them, participants were selected by matching the patients with DRPI (n = 50) to the non-DRPI patient group (n = 100) in a ratio of 1:2. RESULTS As for risk factors, longer hospitalization periods and the presence of oedema increased DRPI risk. In blood tests, higher glucose levels increased the risk by 1.03 times, and lower albumin levels increased the risk by 0.08 times. Furthermore, the risk of developing DRPI was 7.89 times higher when sedatives were administered. CONCLUSIONS Based on the DRPI risk factors identified in this study, patients who have oedema, who have long hospital stays, use sedatives and devices, have a low albumin level, and whose blood glucose is not well controlled should be recognized as having a high risk of developing DRPI. In order to prevent the development of DRPI, it is necessary to recognize risk factors at an early stage, increase actively preventive interventions. The results of this study contribute to recognizing the risk of DRPI in patients and evaluating risk factors for DRPI prevention.

Abstract
This study systematically evaluated the effect of hydrocolloid dressings on facial pressure ulcers in patients receiving non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). The Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database and Wanfang databases were searched for randomised controlled trials on the use of hydrocolloid dressings in patients receiving NIPPV published from the inception of each database to August 2023. The literature was independently screened, data were extracted by two authors based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the quality of the included literature was assessed. The meta-analysis was performed using Stata 17.0. Thirteen studies including 1248 patients were included, with 639 patients in the intervention group and 609 patients in the control group. Meta-analysis showed that the hydrocolloid dressing significantly reduced the incidence of facial pressure ulcers in patients with NIPPV (odds ratio = 0.16, 95% confidence intervals: 0.11-0.24, p < 0.001). Hydrocolloid dressings are effective in reducing the incidence of facial pressure ulcers in patients receiving NIPPV. However, because of the small number of included studies, this conclusion needs to be confirmed with larger samples and high-quality clinical studies.

Abstract
Device-related pressure injuries (DRPIs) prevail in the intensive care unit (ICU) and have much to do with medical devices and patients' conditions. This meta-analysis aims to systematically assess the incidence, prevalence and risk factors related to DRPIs among adults in ICU. Web of Science, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, PubMed and CINAHL were searched from inception to March 2023. Observational studies were included, and the Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to assess literature quality. The primary outcomes were the incidence, prevalence and risk factors regarding DRPIs among adults in ICU. The 19 studies conformed to the criteria for inclusion in the review. The estimated pooled incidence of DRPIs was 14.7% (95% CI: 9.7%-19.6%) in 10 studies (4866 participants). The estimated pooled prevalence of DRPIs was 19.0% (95% CI: 13.6%-24.3%) in 9 studies (5218 participants). The most significant risk factor for DRPIs was using mechanical ventilation. The pooled analysis of the four studies showed that DRPIs were more likely to occur in patients who required mechanical ventilation compared with patients who did not use mechanical ventilation (OR: 9.67, 95% CI: 5.03-18.61, p < 0.001) and using vasopressors, age, length of ICU stays, APACHE II score, Braden score, fever, sex, oedema, diabetes and number of medical devices, SOFA score was also related to pressure injuries risk. The incidence and prevalence of DRPIs in adult ICU were high, and the most significant risk factor for DRPIs was using mechanical ventilation. It is imminent to identify patients of increased risk with DRPIs early.

Abstract
The aim of this review study is to investigate the nurses' knowledge and related factors towards the prevention of medical device-related pressure ulcers (MDRPUs). An extensive search was conducted in international electronic databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, and Persian databases, such as Iranmedex and the Scientific Information Database from December 1, 2022. During this search, keywords extracted from Medical Subject Headings, such as "Prevention knowledge," "Nurse," "Pressure ulcer," "Equipment and Supplies," and "Intensive Care Units" were used. The quality of the present studies in this review was evaluated based on the appraisal tool for cross-sectional studies (AXIS tool). A total of 1847 nurses participated in this review from five studies, and the majority of them (82.94%) were female. The mean age of the participants was 31.40 (SD = 5.97). The mean score of MDRPUs prevention knowledge in nurses based on PU2014 scale and researcher-made questionnaires were 16.50 (SD = 3.74) out of 31 and 65.49 (SD = 6.33) out of 100, respectively. The knowledge of nurses is influenced by factors such as age, sex, level of education, work experience, technical titles, type of hospital, level of hospital, and type of ward. Various factors had a significant positive relationship with nurses' MDRPUs prevention knowledge, which includes level of education, work experience, previous training on MDRPU, having a wound care certificate, an online search about MDRPU, and attitude and practise towards MDRPU prevention. At the same time, nurses' knowledge about the prevention of MDRPUs had a significant negative relationship with the time interval since last participating in MDRPU training or workshop. Overall, the level of MDRPUs prevention knowledge among nurses was insufficient to moderate. Therefore, it is suggested to provide facilities for nurses to receive the necessary training.

Model construction of factors influencing intensive care unit nurses' medical device-related pressure injury knowledge, attitude, and practice. Int Wound J 2023; 20:2582-2593. [PMID: 36891887 PMCID: PMC10410357 DOI: 10.1111/iwj.14129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The ability of knowledge, attitude, and practice of intensive care unit (ICU) nurses to perform medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs) can affect the incidence of MDRPI in ICU patients. Therefore, in order to improve ICU nurses' understanding and nursing ability of MDRPIs, we investigated the non-linear relationship (synergistic and superimposed relationships) between the factors influencing ICU nurses' ability of knowledge, attitude, and practice. A Clinical Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire for the Prevention of MDRPI in Critically Ill Patients was administered to 322 ICU nurses from tertiary hospitals in China from January 1, 2022 to June 31, 2022. After the questionnaire was distributed, the data were collected and sorted out, and the corresponding statistical analysis and modelling software was used to analyse the data. IBM SPSS 25.0 software was used to conduct Single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis on the data, so as to screen the statistically significant influencing factors. IBM SPSS Modeler18.0 software was used to construct a decision tree model of the factors influencing MDRPI knowledge, attitude, and practice of ICU nurses, and ROC curves were plotted to analyse the accuracy of the model. The results showed that the overall passing rate of ICU nurses' knowledge, attitude, and practice score was 72%. The statistically significant predictor variables ranked in importance were education background (0.35), training (0.31), years of working (0.24), and professional title (0.10). AUC = 0.718, model prediction performance is good. There is a synergistic and superimposed relationship between high education background, attended training, high years of working and high professional title. Nurses with the above factors have strong MDRPI knowledge, attitude, and practice ability. Therefore, nursing managers can develop a reasonable and effective scheduling system and MDRPI training program based on the study results. The ultimate goal is to improve the ability of ICU nurses to know and act on MDRPI and to reduce the incidence of MDRPI in ICU patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical device-related pressure injury (MDRPI) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients is a serious issue. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for MDRPI associated with ICU patients through systematic review and meta-analysis, and provide insights into the clinical prevention of MDRPI. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Database, and China BioMedical Literature Database (CBM) (from inception to January 2023) for studies that identified risk factors of MDRPI in ICU patients. In order to avoid the omission of relevant literature, we performed a secondary search of the above database on February 15, 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using Revman 5.3. RESULTS Fifteen studies involving 4850 participants were selected to analyze risk factors for MDRPI in ICU patients. While conducting a meta-analysis, we used sensitivity analysis to ensure the reliability of the results for cases with significant heterogeneity among studies. When the source of heterogeneity cannot be determined, we only described the risk factor. The risk factors for MDRPI in ICU patients were elder age (OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 1.03-1.10), diabetes mellitus (OR = 3.20, 95% CI: 1.96-5.21), edema (OR = 3.62, 95% CI: 2.31-5.67), lower Braden scale score (OR = 1.22, 95%CI: 1.11-1.33), higher SOFA score (OR = 4.21, 95%CI: 2.38-7.47), higher APACHE II score (OR = 1.38, 95%CI: 1.15-1.64), longer usage time of medical devices (OR = 1.11, 95%CI: 1.05-1.19), use of vasoconstrictors (OR = 6.07, 95%CI: 3.15-11.69), surgery (OR = 4.36, 95% CI: 2.07-9.15), prone position (OR = 24.71, 95% CI: 7.34-83.15), and prone position ventilation (OR = 17.51, 95% CI: 5.86-52.36). Furthermore, we found that ICU patients who used subglottic suction catheters had a higher risk of MDRPI, whereas ICU patients with higher hemoglobin and serum albumin levels had a lower risk of MDRPI. CONCLUSION This study reported the risk factors for MDRPI in ICU patients. A comprehensive analysis of these risk factors will help to prevent and optimize interventions, thereby minimizing the occurrence of MDRPI.

Abstract
Prolonged use of continuous positive airway pressure masks, as often required for non-invasive ventilation, involves a risk for facial tissue breakdown due to the sustained deformations caused by tightening of the stiff mask surfaces to the head and the moist environment. The risk of developing mask-related facial injuries can be reduced through suitable cushioning materials placed at the skin-mask interfaces to spread the localised contact forces and disperse the surface and internal tissue stresses. Using an integrated experimental-computational approach, we compared the biomechanical protective performance of three popular foam-based wound dressings to that of a market-lead hydrocolloid dressing when applied to protect the facial skin under a mask. We measured the compressive stiffness properties of the four commercial dressing types in dry and moist conditions, and then fed those to an anatomically realistic finite element model of an adult male head, with an applied simulated mask. Through this process, we calculated the protective efficacy index of each dressing type, indicating the relative contribution of the specified dressing to alleviating facial soft tissue loads with respect to the no-dressing case. The foam-based dressings generally performed substantially better than the hydrocolloid, but foam dressings were also demonstrated to vary by their protective performance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To ascertain the incidence of pressure injuries (PIs) in patients in the coronary care unit (CCU), identify PI characteristics, and determine associated risk factors. METHODS Researchers conducted a retrospective investigational study of patients' medical records. A total of 820 patients who were admitted to the CCU between January 2018 and December 2020 met the study criteria. Of these, 200 patients who developed PIs after admission to the CCU were included in this study. This study examined the clinical features of PIs, as well as five PI risk factors: patient characteristics; length of stay; intrinsic factors; care factors, including medical devices; and vasopressor agents. RESULTS The incidence of PIs among patients in the CCU was 24.4%. At initial detection, 79.5% of these injuries were already at stage 2 or higher. The results indicated a significant correlation between PI stage and hemoglobin level. Moreover, the authors also found relationships between the use of medical devices (eg, arterial catheters, oxygen tubes, and Levin tubes) and PI onset. CONCLUSIONS Critically ill patients in the CCU use various medical devices for an extended period with severe consequences. The risk factors affecting PI are multifactorial. Therefore, the implementation of PI prevention and early detection strategies for patients in the CCU are crucial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pressure injuries on mucous membranes are caused by pressure from medical devices at the site of injury and differ to those on the skin. Intensive care patients, who have multiple devices in situ, are particularly vulnerable. There is a significant knowledge gap regarding mucous membrane pressure injury (MMPI) incidence in acute hospital settings. AIM To analyse MMPI incidence and characteristics in a tertiary acute general hospital. METHODS A secondary data analysis of hospital clinical incident reports was conducted. The sample included all adults with MMPIs between 2015 and 2019. The STROBE reporting guideline was followed. RESULTS There were 414 reports of MMPI. Most (91.5%, n = 379) were hospital-acquired with the majority found in intensive care patients (74.4%, n = 282). Hospital-acquired MMPI incidence was 0.1% (11 MMPI per 10,000 hospital episodes). In intensive care, the incidence was 2.4% (235 MMPI per 10,000 intensive care episodes). The median time from device insertion until reporting of an MMPI was 3 days. The most common sites of mucosal injury were the lips (35.6%) and mouth (28.8%). In all cases except one, MMPI was associated with medical device use at the site of injury. Five device types were identified (oral endotracheal tube-related 70.3%; urinary catheter 15.5%; gastric tube 8.3%; nasal prongs 3.5%; tracheostomy tube 2.4%). In intensive care, oral endotracheal tube-related devices were most often associated with MMPI (84.8%), whereas in non-intensive care MMPI it was the urinary catheter (51.4%). CONCLUSIONS While hospital-acquired MMPI incidence is relatively low, it is considerably higher in intensive care patients compared to those in non-intensive care settings. The most common sites are the lips and mouth. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Mucous membrane pressure injuries represent a significant proportion of all hospital-acquired pressure injuries. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION Neither patients nor the public were directly involved in this project.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients critically ill with COVID-19 are at risk for hospital-acquired pressure injury, including device-related pressure injury. METHODS Braden Scale predictive validity was compared between patients with and without COVID-19, and a logistic regression model was developed to identify risk factors for device-related pressure injury. RESULTS A total of 1920 patients were included in the study sample, including 407 with COVID-19. Among the latter group, at least 1 hospital-acquired pressure injury developed in each of 120 patients (29%); of those, device-related pressure injury developed in 55 patients (46%). The Braden Scale score area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.72 in patients without COVID-19 and 0.71 in patients with COVID-19, indicating fair to poor discrimination. CONCLUSIONS Fragile skin and prone positioning during mechanical ventilatory support were risk factors for device-related pressure injury. Clinicians may consider incorporating factors not included in the Braden Scale (eg, oxygenation and perfusion) in routine risk assessment and should maintain vigilance in their efforts to protect patients with COVID-19 from device-related pressure injury.
