Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to use SEM measurement to clarify the effect of preventive dressings on patients who have been bedridden for a long time, and to verify the relationship between the application of preventive dressings and the occurrence of pressure injury .
If this study clarifies the effect of preventive dressings on patients who have been bedridden for a long time, it will lead to the expansion of methods for preventing pressure injury in chronic care wards where many long-term bedridden patients are hospitalized. Furthermore, there has been little research in Japan on SEM measurement and pressure injury , and this is the first study to use an SEM Scanner, particularly on Japanese subjects. If this study helps to build evidence regarding SEM measurement and early detection of pressure injury in Japanese patients, SEM measurement may become the standard tool for detecting pressure injury in Japan, and may become an earlier and more accurate method.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Patient data will be collected from the medical records of the study subjects, including their age, sex, disease, date of hospitalization, level of independence in daily life for disabled elderly people, and weight. In addition, BMI will be calculated from the medical record information, and nutritional status will be evaluated using the MNA-SF35), a simplified version of a nutritional assessment tool for the elderly. Furthermore, together with the nurse in charge of the study subjects, data will be collected on the presence or absence of joint contractures, evaluation using the Braden Scale36), a pressure injury risk assessment scale, and the presence or absence of IAD (incontinence-associated dermatitis), and palpation will be used to confirm whether or not there is a bony prominence in the sacrum of the study subjects.
