Hospital‐acquired pressure ulcers and risk of hospital mortality in intensive care patients on mechanical ventilation

Abstract: Within the limitations of a single-centre approach, PU development appears to be associated with an increase in mortality among patients requiring MV for 24 hours or longer.

“…Furthermore, Manzano et al investigated the association between newly developed pressure injuries and in‐hospital mortality in a single‐center, prospective cohort study of medical–surgical ICU patients . In this analysis, pressure injury development while hospitalized in the ICU was an independent predictor of in‐hospital death (adjusted hazard ratio 1.28; 95% CI 1.003–1.65, P = .047) . These analyses continue to highlight the significance of HAPIs as an important healthcare issue in those who are acutely ill.…”

“…In a secondary analysis of data from a recent multicenter study (n = 7291), ICU patients were 3.8 times more likely to develop a HAPI compared with those not admitted to the ICU (relative risk 3.8; 95% CI 2.7–5.4) . Recent studies have also found pressure injuries to be associated with important clinical outcomes in critically ill patients . Graves et al performed a cross‐sectional analysis from an ongoing prospective study (n = 2500), and found pressure injuries to be independently associated with a prolonged hospital LOS compared with those who did not develop a HAPI (4.31 days; 95% CI 1.85–6.78) .…”

“…Pressure ulcers have also been associated with higher mortality and decreased quality of life. (2,3) Therefore, the incidence and severity of PUs have become indicators of the quality of care and safety of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). (4) …”

“…The PUs have a negative impact on the quality of life of patients, hindering functional recovery, often causing pain and suffering, leading to the development of serious infections associated with prolonged hospitalization, sepsis and mortality 3 - 6 . Moreover, the PUs expand the workload of healthcare staff and contribute to expensive costs for health services 7 .…”
