“…These results agreement with the study performed by (Cox et al, 2020) who detected that sex, age, and Braden Scale score on admission were all predictive of pressure injury. Also, supported with the study by (Sayan et al, 2020) who showed that occurrence of PU is associated with increasing age and severity of patient clinical status, as predicted by the Braden Scale score and increase the length of stay at the hospital.…”

Treating severe pressure ulcers may consume considerable manpower, time, and medical resources. Pressure ulcers can be avoided and effectively treated when nurses conduct proper skin assessment and care for wounds appropriately. Research hypothesis: There was positive impact of bundle skincare training on nurses' performance and orthopedic patients' skin outcome. quasi-experimental design was utilized at orthopedic units at Shebin El Koum teaching Hospital and Menofia University Hospital. Tools used for data collection were Pre-designed Questionnaire contained on nurses' characteristics, Attitude Rating Scale and Nurses' knowledge, also used Observational Checklist and BRADEN scale. The subject composed of 45 nurses and 90 orthopedic patients. Mean score of total knowledge pre-intervention was 6.83±3.1, while at the post was 9.95±2.1. Also, a mean score of total practice pre-intervention was 7.11±2.6, while at the post was 11.83±3.4, and, a mean score of total attitude pre-intervention was 5.02±2.8, while at the post was 7.82±1.9. Mean score of BRADEN scale at pre-intervention was 12.81±3.04, while at the post was 13.45±1.99. Application bundle skin care had a positive effect on nurses' knowledge, practice and attitude related skincare for orthopedic patients. So, there was an improvement at BRADEN score of patients post-application bundle skincare. Age, gender and previous hospitalization, BMI, and length had positive predictor effect on pressure sore risk. Skincare bundle for orthopedic patients is acceptable and has the potential to improve nursing care.

The aim of this national cross‐sectional study was to explore the prevalence of pressure injuries and incidence of hospital‐acquired pressure injuries, and the relating factors in somatic‐specialised inpatient care in Finland. The study was conducted in 16 (out of 21) Finnish health care organisations offering specialised health care services. Data were collected in 2018 and 2019 from adult patients (N = 5902) in inpatient, emergency follow‐up, and rehabilitation units. Pressure injury prevalence (all stages/categories) was 12.7%, and the incidence of hospital‐acquired pressure injuries was 10%. Of the participants, 2.6% had at least one pressure injury at admission. The risk of hospital‐acquired pressure injuries was increased for medical patients with a higher age, the inability to move independently, mode of arrival, being underweight, and the absence of a skin assessment or pressure injury risk assessment at admission. For surgical patients, the risk was associated with the inability to move independently, mode of arrival, and lack of skin assessment at admission, while being overweight protected the patients. Overall, medical patients were in greater risk of hospital‐acquired pressure injuries than the surgical patients. An assessment of the pressure injury risk and skin status should be carried out more systematically in Finnish acute care hospitals.

Background & Objectives: Severe traumatic brain injury is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity.Efficient management of severe traumatic brain injury demands a specialty driven focused intensive care. We developed our model of closed ICU driven by Neurosurgical Neurointensivist and the corollary to thiscommitment is a TBI patient centered Neurocritical care with the capacity and capability to deal with most of the neurological illnesses.Materials & Methods: A prospective study was conducted to find out the impact of the establishment of closed system of neurocritical care on 5 year mortality of severe TBI. Total 1288 patients met the inclusion criteria, which were enrolled. Tabulation was done for gender, age range, Glasgow outcome scale and mortality.Results: It was observed that mortality reduced from 47% to 35% over a span of five years. The most common age range was 30-40 years, which is the most productive group of any population. Bed sore incidence is always on rise in any ICU. After the implementation of SOPs based management and increase in nursing staff theincidence of bedsore also showed a detrimental pattern from 35 % to 19%.Conclusion: Neurocritical care unit is proven to be an integral part of any neurosurgical unit and this closed system of NCC unit provide best SOP based care with significant reduction in mortality of patients with STBI.
