Pressure injuries occur when medical devices, which are used more in intensive care patients and are in direct or indirect contact with the skin, cause focal and localized forces on the superficial or deep tissues.
Objective: In this study, it was aimed to examine the risk factors, incidence and characteristics of medical device-related pressure injuries in intensive care patients.
Objective: To investigate the scales used in the diagnosis of incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD), including the risk factors included in the scales, their reliability and validity, and in which patient groups the scales have been applied.
Data Sources: The relevant studies were screened retrospectively using five MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) keywords in various combinations. Seven international databases were screened between March and July 2019.
Aim: This systematic review was carried out to examine pressure ulcers in healthcare staff due to the use of protective equipment during COVID-19 pandemic and the precautions taken to prevent these injuries.
Method: Relevant studies were retrospectively searched. Seven English keywords identified from MESH were used while searching.
Background: The Roy Adaptation Model examines the individual in 4 fields: physiological mode, self-concept mode, role function mode, and interdependence mode. Hemodialysis treatment is associated with the Roy Adaptation Model as it involves fields that might be needed by the individual with chronic renal disease.
Purpose: This research was conducted as randomized controlled experiment with the aim of determining the effect of the education given in accordance with the Roy Adaptation Model on physiological, psychological, and social adaptation of individuals undergoing hemodialysis treatment.
Objective: The goal of this systematic review was to reach scientific generalizations regarding the assessment of risk for pressure ulcers based on the results of previous studies that made use of the Braden Scale.
Data Sources: This research was performed by using a retrospective screening of studies relevant to the subject. In Turkey, the first validity and reliability study for the Braden Scale was performed by Oğuz and Olgun in 1998.
