approved by both Hospitals Ethical Committees. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine the predictive power of independent variables related to the development of PU. Linear model was used for repetitive measures. The results showed that albumin (OR = 3.475, P < 0.001) and SGA (OR = 3.787, P < 0.001) showed to be the most important predictive factors after univariate logistic regression. Nutrition sub scale showed to be a predictive factor in the second (P < 0.001) and third (P < 0.001) Braden assessments after univariate logistic regression, and when associated with laboratorial tests (OR = 1.786, P < 0.001) and anthropometry (OR = 2.937, P < 0.001) in the first assessment after multivariate regression. Only albumin (P < 0,001) and SGA (P < 0.001) remained as risk predictors in three assessments after the multivariate regression analysis. In conclusion, the Nutritionas it is proposed in Braden scale-did not appear as a powerful predictive factor for PU development.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
