“…Each link in the preventive nursing of pressure ulcers affects the recovery of the patient. Each link has different responsibilities and functions and forms a chain-like relationship based on specific logical relationships and spatial-temporal relationships [ 13 , 14 ]. The introduction of cloud computing improves resource utilization, reduces system operating costs, and is conducive to constructing green hospitals [ 15 ].…”

The study focused on the preventive effects of the chain management model on pressure ulcers in the operating room. Sqoop big data collection module is used to collect patient information from various hospital information systems in a distributed manner. The data were from the clinical data center of the Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University General Hospital, and 268 patients were selected as the research subjects. A chain management model is constructed, concerning the preventive measures, the management of each link, the perioperative pressure ulcer management, and the reporting of pressure ulcers. Then, the two groups were compared for the SAS and SDS scores before and after nursing, the pressure ulcer sites, pressure ulcer reporting rate, pressure ulcer staging, and nursing satisfaction. The results show that it is not that more collection modules will lead to better cluster performance and that the execution delay is caused by MapReduce requiring the JAVA virtual machine, and after reaching a certain point, the increase in the number of tasks will slow down the process, and as data size increases, DataNote has an expanded capability to analyze data. After nursing treatment, the SAS and SDS scores of the two groups of patients were significantly lower than before treatment ( P < 0.05 ). The pressure ulcers were mainly distributed in the forehead, mandible, cheeks, front chest, and knees in the two groups, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). The total satisfaction of the observation group was 93.28%, and the total satisfaction of the control group was 92.54%. The patients’ satisfaction with the chain management model was higher than that of conventional nursing.

BACKGROUND: Pressure injury (PI) is a local injury of the skin and/or soft tissue located at the bone caused by medical or other equipment and is common in long-term bedridden patients. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect of Urgotul foam dressing in the treatment of stage 3 ∼ 4 PI and deep tissue PI. METHODS: A total of 38 patients with stage 3 ∼ 4 PI and deep tissue PI admitted to Jinan Central Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were selected and randomly divided into a control group (dressing change plus silver ion cream dressing) and an observation group (dressing change plus Urgotul Absorb non-border foam dressing), with 19 cases in each group. After 4 weeks of treatment, the pain intensity during dressing change and the treatment efficacy for PI wounds were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There were no differences in gender (P= 0.740), age (P= 0.130), single wound area (P= 0.673), consultation department (P= 0.972), stage (P= 0.740), presence of undermining (P= 0.721), deep tissue PI (P= 0.721), and systemic antibiotic therapy (P= 1.000) between the two groups, which were comparable. The treatment effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group (P= 0.003), and the pain score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P< 0.001). CONCLUSION: Urgotul Absorb non-border foam dressing has a good effect in the treatment of stage 3 ∼ 4 PI and deep tissue PI and can relieve patients’ pain, and is thus worth promoting.
