“…Our intervention comprised 2 h on this topic, leading to improvements in the understanding about lower limb ulcers’ physiopathology and care, diminishing the number of “Don’t know/Don’t answer” responses in the post-test group. Improvements in the teaching strategy on this topic would allow students to overcome barriers to knowledge [ 42 ].…”

Background: Wound healing competence is implied in the nursing profession, but there is no standardized content regulation for wound care in university curricula. The primary objective of this study was to identify the barriers to the acquisition of knowledge about skin integrity impairment. Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test study with an ad hoc questionnaire involved 304 students (control: 165; intervention: 139) from June to July 2023. A 10-h educational intervention focused on skin integrity assessment and treatment was conducted. Results: The control group, scoring 17 ± 0.22 out of a maximum of 61, achieved a significantly lower final test score (p < 0.001) compared to the wound care educational intervention group, with the pre-test group scoring 30 ± 0.76 and the post-test group scoring 43 ± 0.61. The educational intervention in wound care program improved nursing students’ knowledge of prevention, assessment/diagnosis, treatment, lower limb wounds, and wound bed preparation by replacing the number of "Don’t know" answers in the post-test group with correct answers. Conclusions: The barriers identified to the acquisition of knowledge about skin integrity impairment in nursing studies are the following: the transversality of teaching, the teaching and evaluation system, and the variability in the training of professionals and teachers in charge of their education. The educational intervention can be used to consolidate knowledge and to enhance students’ self-confidence in caring for patients with wounds.

Objetivo: Verificar o conhecimento explícito e os fatores não modificáveis que interferem no conhecimento sobre ressuscitação cardiopulmonar intra-hospitalar no cuidado realizado por profissionais de saúde. Método: Estudo transversal quantitativo desenvolvido em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva adulto com amostra constituída por 115 profissionais de saúde. Utilizou-se questionário semiestruturado, validado pelo método Delphi, dividido em três domínios. Foi realizada análise descritiva e testado hipótese pelos testes Kruskal-Wallis e Dunn-Mann-Whitney. Foram calculadas correlações de Spearman entre variáveis contínuas/ordinais e considerado como significativo α de 5%. Resultados: O conhecimento sobre suporte básico de vida foi superior ao suporte avançado de vida (68,8% vs 59,1%). Os profissionais apresentaram nota mediana de 80 (70-85) pontos em relação ao conhecimento relacionado a parada cardiopulmonar em pacientes com COVID-19. A idade (p=0,044) e o tempo de formação profissional de saúde (p=0,007) se mostraram como fatores não modificáveis que interferem significativamente no nível de conhecimento. Conclusão: O conhecimento interprofissional explícito sobre o atendimento ao paciente em parada cardiopulmonar mostrou-se satisfatório, mas ainda com lacunas no que se refere aos aspectos relacionados ao atendimento do indivíduo com COVID-19. A idade e o tempo de formação do profissional de saúde se mostraram como fatores não modificáveis que interferem significativamente no nível de conhecimento.

“…In addition, the lack of training, both practical and theoretical, of the professionals who apply compression treatment is evident, as there is little documentation with clear interventions to be conducted by professionals to achieve healing and prevent recurrence. 25 , 26 Several studies 15 , 27 refer to the importance that health care providers who deliver compression therapy, as doctors and nurses, must have sufficient skills to be competent in the application of the treatment, a key element in achieving effective compression. Therefore, it is necessary for professionals, to have the required knowledge and skills in their interventions to ensure the success of evidence‐based treatments.…”

“…Previous studies report that the health professionals responsible for the care of these conditions, do not have the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for the correct healing and prevention of ulcers of vascular origin. In addition, the lack of training, both practical and theoretical, of the professionals who apply compression treatment is evident, as there is little documentation with clear interventions to be conducted by professionals to achieve healing and prevent recurrence 25,26 .

The uncertainty concerning the physiological effects of compression bandaging on the peripheral blood flow is a challenge for healthcare professionals. The main objective was to determine the haemodynamic impact on the distal posterior tibial artery after the application of a high‐compression leg multicomponent bandaging system using 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging. Leg dominance disparities of the posterior tibial artery before and after the application of the compressive bandage were also analysed. Twenty‐eight healthy female volunteers were recruited (mean: 25.71, standard deviation: 4.74 years old) through a non‐probability convenience sampling. The 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging of the distal tibial posterior artery was performed in all participants, first under standard resting conditions and after the application of a compression bandage in the leg. When the strong compressive bandage was applied, the area of the assessed artery decreased by 14.2%, whilst the average speed increased by 19.6% and the flow rate increased by 184.8%. There were differences between the haemodynamic parameters of both legs according to dominance, being statistically significantly lower in the dominant leg. The application of strong compressive bandaging significantly increases the arterial flow and mean velocity in the distal segment of the posterior tibial artery, in healthy volunteers by 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging. In this study, leg dominance influenced some of the haemodynamic parameters. According to the results, leg compression bandages cannot be contraindicated in vascular ulcers with arterial compromise.
