Abstract:
Objective To explore the epidemiological features of medical adhesive related skin injury (MARSI) in elderly inpatients, such as incidence, predilection sites and common types, and to determine the risk factors of MARSI and to put forward nursing countermeasures. Methods From April 2018 to August 2018, we selected all the elderly patients at a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Shandong Province by cluster sampling. The investigation was carried out with the self-designed MARSI related factors questionnaire and the information collection questionnaire. The single factor analysis and multiple Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of MARSI. Results A total of 2 263 elderly inpatients were included. There were 218 of them with MARSI along with 9.63% for the incidence, and the contact dermatitis is the most common (43.95%). Logistic regression showed that the independent risk factors of MARSI included the ages, smoking history, serum albumin, skin edema, MARSI history, dry skin and skin allergies. Conclusions Elderly patients are the high risk group of MARSI. Nursing intervention should be strengthened the in clinical work based on risk factors to reduce the skin injury caused by medical factors.
