Beschreibung
Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2024 in the subject Nursing Science - Acute care, grade: 1,7, , course: Praxisanleitung in der Pflege, language: English, abstract: This English version of the paper has been translated to reach a broader audience, recognizing the importance of pressure ulcer prevention in everyday nursing care. The paper examines the applicability of the Braden Scale for pressure ulcer prevention in intensive care units (ICU). The Braden Scale assesses six key risk factors for the development of pressure ulcers: sensory perception, moisture, activity level, mobility, nutritional status, and friction/shear. However, ICU patients face specific challenges such as sedation, immobility, and specialized nutrition, which increase their risk for pressure ulcers and complicate the use of the scale.
