Abstract

Pressure injuries increase morbidity and mortality in geriatric patients by 400%. Residents in long-term care (LTC) are at high risk of developing pressure injuries because of limited mobility, poor nutritional status, impaired cognition, and incontinence. This study aims to determine whether a no-sting barrier film (NSBF) treatment protocol is more effective than current physician practices for treating stage 1 and 2 pressure injuries in LTC. A retrospective cohort study of 129 residents from one LTC facility was performed after a six-month implementation trial of a NSBF treatment protocol. The six-month incidence rate of stage 1 and 2 pressure injuries was 9% and 38% respectively. There was a statistically significant reduction in healing time in those treated with the NSBF protocol. In summary, the NSBF protocol reduces healing time of stage 1 and 2 pressure injuries; this protocol could be easily incorporated into existing pressure injury treatment strategies in LTC.

在长期护理中使用无刺屏障膜治疗方案与常规临床护理相比治疗1期和2期压力损伤

压力损伤使老年患者的发病率和死亡率增加400%。长期护理（LTC）中的居民由于行动不便、营养状况不佳、认知受损和失禁而有很高的压力损伤风险。本研究旨在确定无刺屏障膜（NSBF）治疗方案在治疗LTC 1期和2期压力损伤方面是否比目前的医生实践更有效。在对NSBF治疗方案进行了为期六个月的实施试验后，对一家LTC机构的129名居民进行了回顾性队列研究。1期和2期压力损伤的6个月发生率分别为9%和38%。在接受NSBF方案治疗的患者中，愈合时间在统计学上显著缩短。总之，NSBF方案缩短了1期和2期压力损伤的愈合时间；该方案可以很容易地纳入LTC中现有的压力损伤治疗策略中。
