Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of collaborative assessment and management on skin of high-risk pressure ulcer patients by nurses from operating room and wards. Methods 709 high-risk pressure ulcer patients who underwent surgical operations in our hospital were selected as the control group from January to June 2016.The 3S pressure ulcer risk assessment form was used to evaluate the skin of the operated patients.Another 680 high-risk pressure ulcer patients were selected as the observation group from July to December in 2016.The skin evaluation and pressure ulcer protection measures in the observation group were the same as those in the control group.The assessment was done by the nurses from the operating room and the wards separately.According to the evaluation form, the nurses in the operating room explained the patient's skin condition to the ward nurses in details, and then they cooperated in managing the postoperative skin of the patients. The two groups were compared in respect of the incidence of pressure ulcers at the time points of postoperative 24h,48h and 72h. Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of pressure ulcers after operation between the two groups(P>0.05).The incidence of pressure ulcers in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group at the time points of 24h, 48h and 72h after operation (P<0.05). Conclusion The collaborative assessment and management of skin for surgical patients with high-risk pressure ulcer by the nurses from both operating room and wards can effectively prevent the occurrence and development of pressure ulcers,worthy of clinical application.
