incidence of stage 1 pressure ulcers
The NPUAP scale is staging system since 1989 as one of the most widely used classification systems for the PI that describes the depth of the wound caused by PIs. In accordance with the panel, the PIs are divided into the original 4 stages and adding 2 stages on deep tissue injury and unstageable PIs. In this work, skin redness without discoloration by finger pressure in area of interest was considered as PIs stage I
Time frame: Before applying sprays, Patients will be evaluated by pairs of observers (trained nurse and specialist) at 9:00 am for the presence of PIs at third day, after intervention
