NCT03557489

Brief Summary

In surgical patients, prevention of pressure injury is a challenge because of the high risk for multiple comorbid conditions, hemodynamic instability, and long duration of immobility. The objectives of our study is to compare the difference in incidence rates of sacral pressure injury in surgical patients with supine position more than 3 hours between those treated with usual preventive care and a sacral foam pad versus a control group receiving usual care.
