Brief Summary

This study is an experimental study. The main caregivers of pressure injury patients in the plastics surgery ward and general medicine ward of the hospital in Taipei City who are over 20 years old, have good communication skills in Chinese and Taiwanese or who can read Chinese are the research objects. During the study process, pre-tests will be given to the accepted subjects, which are the correctness evaluation scale of caregiver's pressure injury wound dressing change and caregiver self-efficacy scale, and then the accepted subjects will be divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group will receive interventions of virtual reality and artificial intelligence wound detecting system, while the control group maintained the traditional pressure injury health education with oral introduction and health education leaflet. After the intervention measures are given, a post-test (same as the pre-test content) will be conducted within two days. Finally, analyze the effectiveness of the intervention of virtual reality pressure injury education video and artificial intelligence wound detecting system on caregivers of pressure injury improve wound care correctness and increase self-efficacy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Accurate dressing change rate of pressure injury

  This scale mainly evaluates the correctness of dressing changes for pressure injuries. Three pressure injury scales are designed for stage 2 pressure injury, uninfected stage 3 and stage 4 pressure injury, and infected stage 3 and stage 4 pressure injury. Each scale is divided into three parts, including 1 item for hand hygiene, 6 items for material preparation, and 19 items for wound dressing change, for a total of 26 items. Medical staff or researchers will rate the participants' dressing change process as correctly performed, incorrectly performed, or not applicable, and the accuracy rate will be used as the evaluation result, that is, the total number of correctly performed questions minus the number of not applicable questions will be divided by the total number of the questions. The participants need to perform two actual dressing changes on the pressure injury, each time lasting approximately 15 minutes, totally approximately 30 minutes.
