Abstract

The first intervention in pressure ulcer prevention is often the completion of a pressure ulcer risk assessment, which aims to identify a patient's level of risk of developing a pressure ulcer. Appropriate care planning should then follow. There are several pressure ulcer risk assessment tools that nurses can use in their clinical practice, but it has not always been clear which is the most effective. One of these tools - the PURPOSE T (Pressure Ulcer Risk Primary or Secondary Evaluation Tool) - has recently been recommended in national guidelines and is now considered to be the only tool with an up-to-date evidence base. This article examines some of the risk assessment tools used to assess pressure ulcer risk, as well as providing an overview of the PURPOSE T and explaining its significance in pressure ulcer prevention.

将 PURPOSE T 褥疮风险评估工具应用于临床实践。
预防压疮的第一项干预措施通常是完成压疮风险评估,目的是确定患者发生压疮的风险水平。随后应制定适当的护理计划。有几种压疮风险评估工具可供护士在临床实践中使用,但并不总是很清楚哪种最有效。其中一种工具--PURPOSE T(压疮风险一级或二级评估工具)--最近被国家指南推荐使用,目前被认为是唯一具有最新证据基础的工具。本文探讨了一些用于评估压疮风险的风险评估工具,并概述了 PURPOSE T,解释了其在压疮预防中的意义。
