Study Design: Prospective cohort study.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate how time since spinal cord injury/disorder (SCI/D) and patients' age influence risk constellation for hospital acquired pressure injuries (HAPI) in patients with a SCI/D.
Setting: Acute care and rehabilitation clinic specialized in SCI/D.
Study Design: Prospective observational cohort study.
Objectives: First, describe pressure injury (PI) and associated risk factors in individuals with spinal cord injury/disorder (SCI/D) during first rehabilitation. Second, evaluate a prediction model for hospital acquired PI (HAPI) development.
Background: Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and inflammation are all associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to assess potential interrelationships between these parameters in a young and healthy population.
Methods: Healthy individuals aged 25-41 years were included in a prospective population-based study.
