Abstract:
Objective Skin tears are one of the skin adverse events in hospitalized patients which increased the length of stay and cost.How to intervene effectively is one of the global research priorities.The article aimed to study effective treatment for skin laceration by analyzing the characteristic and classification and applying grading nursing care for skin laceration.Methods From the first visit of 26 patients,the wound care center assessed the site,cause,severity classification and duration of skin laceration and managed wounds with individualized grading nursing care and overall intervention.Measurement was done on the area reduction once a week with dynamic adjusting interventions until healing.Results 26 patients with skin laceration were mainly grade 3,accounting for 76.92％ (20/26).Extremities were the main injured sites,accounting for 84.62％ (22/26).All wounds healed within 60 days and the average healing time was (22.38-±13.56)days.Median healing time was 20 days.No significance was found in the reduction rate of wounding site in 3 weeks and healing time for different severity grades,different durations and different sites of skin laceration (P＞0.05).Conclusion Individualized grading nursing care can efficiently treat skin tears with different severity,durations and sites.
