Pressure Ulcer

Transcript: suspected deep tissue injury. Also known as bedsores or decubitus ulcers Symptoms/Tests Stages Source Stage 2 Pressure Ulcer 10% to 18% in acute care, 2.3% to 28% in long-term care, and 0%-29% in home care Treatment Stage 4: The pressure ulcer has become so deep that there is demage to the muscle and bone, and sometimes to tendons and joints. www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/pressuresores.html Stage 3 Deep Tissue Injury: the skin is purple or maroon-red, appears as a blood-filled blister. as of 2010, pressure ulcers resulted in about 43,000 deaths. Stage 1: A reddened area on the skin that,when pressed, does not turn white.- sign of ulcer forming. The effected skin looks red and my feel warm to touch. it may also burn, hurt or itch. Red skin that gets worse over time The area forms a blisterc then an open sore Tests- Blood Test, Tissue Cultures (diagnose a bacterial or fungal infection, also for cancerous tissue A pressure ulcer is an area of skin that is damaged from staying in a position for to long. Pressure ulcers form on your ankles, back, elbows, heels, hips, butt, shoulders, and at the back of your head. Prevention Causes Stage 2: The skin blisters or forms an open sore. the area around the sore may be red and irritated. Stage 3: the skin now develops an open, sunken hole or crater. The tissue below the skin is damaged. Change position at least every 2 hr to relieve pressure. Eat well-balanced meals that contain enough calories to keep you healthy. Drink plenty of water every day. Exercise daily Keep the skin clean and dry www.mayoclinic.com/health/bedsores/ds00570/dsection=symptoms umm.edu/health/medical/ency/articles/pressure-ulcer Relieve the pressure on that area. Treat the sore avoid further injury or friction to the area. Eat healthy foods. Clean the ulcer the way your doctor or nurse told you to. Rinsed with a salt-water- removes looes, dead tissue. Stage 1 Unstageable pressure ulcers: The damage can't be estimated. www.logicalimages.com/publichealthresources/pressureulcer.htm Stage 4 The pressure on the skin reduces blood flow to the area. Without enough blood, the skin can die and an ulcer may form. Also staying in bed for a long time can cause ulcers. People with fragile skin and paralyzed people have a higher chance of getting ulcers. Additional Information unstageable pressure ulcers

How often should you turn a patient to prevent pressure Ulcers? What stage is an ulcer when you can see fatty tissuse but no bone or muscle? Name two risk factors for developing a pressure ulcer? Partial thickness loss of epidermis and dermis. The ulcer is superficial and appears as an abrasion, blister, or a shallow crater. A shiny or dry shallow ulcer without slough or bruising Patients older than 65 years old Diabetes Mellitus Edema Vasoconstrictive diseases Stage 4 Stages of Pressure Ulcer Inspect integrity of skin especially under and around any protective devices used Use proper turning and transfer techniques and devices to avoid sliding friction and shear Document any skin discrepancies and report, take a picture! Contact wound care specialist to inspect and treat the ucler Regularly inspect and clean skin in contact with probes, drains ,cannula and tubing. Provide patient with proper nutrition Stage 2 incontinence Skin discomfort( pain, Itching, loss of sensation) Skin blanching, abscess or absence of skin layers Care Tissue tolerance- The integrity of the skin Shear – occurs when the patient slides downwards with gravity while the skin remains in the original position, stretching and tearing the blood vessels causing tissue ischemia. Friction- occurs when two surfaces moves across each other removing superficial layers of the skin usually over a bony prominence. Gel pad arm on arm boards to relieve pressure on elbows Gel pad on the heels of patients in suspension slings Gel pad head ring to protect occipital area Pillows to protect boney promiences Prevention of Pressure Ulcers Full thickness tissue loss. Subcutaneous fat may be visible but bone, tendon or muscle are not exposed. Risk Factors 3 Keep patient dry with no creases under patients skin Change patient position every 2 hours Apply the appropriate topical agent or dressing in relation to the ulcer characteristics as ordered. Reassess skin to check for any change in skin integrity Pressure Points Skin hygiene Skin moisture Skin temperature Skin integrity Skin scarring REFERENCEs If possible re-position the patient every 2 hours to relieve pressure from the affected areas Avoid high semi-fowlers position for extended periods as it increases the shear and pressure forces in the sacral area. Position high risk patients on specialty beds if possible Intact skin with non-blanchable redness/erythema of intact skin of a localized area usually over a bony prominence. Discoloration of the skin, warmth, edema, hardness may also be used as indicators, particularly on individual with darker skin.

The UK spends around 1.4 to 2.1 billion yearly. (Bennett, at al,. 2004). objective prevention pressure ulcer mostly occur as a result of inadequate care, following the principle of prevention help protecting people at risk from developing pressure ulcer Nonblanchable erythema of intact skin heralding lesion of skin ulceration. In individuals with darker skin, discoloration of the skin, warmth, oedema, induration or hardness may be indicators. kareema alabri References Thank you mobility problem poor nutrition underlying health condition being over 70 years old incontinence : urine/ bowel serious mental health condition Full thickness skin loss involving damage to or necrosis of subcutaneous tissue that may extend down to, but not through underlying fascia. The ulcer presents clinically as deep crater with or without undermining of adjacent tissue (Ellis, 2016) How it occurs The extra pressure disrupts the blood flow through the skin. Without the blood supply, the effected skin areas became starving of oxygen and nutritions.it began to breakdown leads to formation of ulcer which can be infected by bacteria. stage 2 content stages 1 areas of damaged skin and tissue that developed from sustained pressure usually laying in bed or sitting in wheelchairs.

Transcript: Quality Improvement Strategies For Pressure Ulcer Patients In Long Term Care Facilities What are Pressure Ulcers? Pressure ulcers, also known as bedsores, are a tissue condition that occurs when constant pressure is applied to a region of the body. Without the relaxing of the pressure, the skin and muscle tissue starts to degrade and die. How Does the Condition Affect Health Care? Without the relaxing of the pressure, the skin and muscle tissue starts to degrade and die. This issue affects around 2.5 million patients each year and contributes to 11 billion dollars in health care spending. The estimated cost doesn’t reflect the additional costs that may come from potential neglect of care lawsuits that have been filed. Some of the high risk patients include the elderly and patients with mobility issues. This is a also a concern because some elderly patients also have mobility issues. This will involve performance of tests, implementing and executing of the plan, documenting any observations made and recording the data for residents in Long Term Care facility. MEASUREMENT (POST-IMPLEMENTATION) B) Measure the percentage of patients receiving a complete pressure ulcer preventive care (weekly) D) Measure the number of patients receiving daily pressure ulcer risk assessment (daily) DO Daily inspection of skin Ensure proper cleaning and managing of skin (cleaning and moisturizing ) Ensure proper nutrition feeding Reposition every 2 hours Use of pressure-relieving materials C) Measure pressure ulcer incidence per 100 patients days (monthly) Objective: To reduce the incidence of pressure ulcer in Long Term care Facility residents by 50% within 4 months by October 13, 2016 Predictions: Addition of risk assessment tools to aid the nurses caring for patients in long term care facility is likely to enhance timely detection of pressure ulcers risk at time of admission and hence ensure compliance. A) Measure the number of patients receiving pressure ulcer admission assessment (weekly) Using the risk assessment guidelines, all patients with LOS less than 24 hours will be assessed daily using a standardized form with guidelines that tracks residents pressure ulcer details from admissions/discharge from ER to transfer into LTC. ACT PLAN Here we will determine what changes need to be made Modify the plan to continue to improve the system for incidence of pressure ulcer in Long Term Care Facility We will repeat the PDSA cycle as necessary to ensure accuracy. It was determined that nurses needed more education and guidance on staging pressure ulcer. Therefore another cycle for PDSA was set to ensure the nurses are competent in this area. STUDY This aspect will focus on assessment of the process and resulting outcomes with an aim of drawing useful conclusions. It will answer questions such as how the cycle’s outcomes are in agreement with the predicted outcomes and further, summary of the fresh knowledge that has be gained during the PDSA cycle. Using the pressure time-log/activity form to track activities of interventions, new incidence of pressure ulcers and the effectiveness of the intervention strategies assess skin to identify existing pressure ulcer. using the risk assessment tool to assess and identify high risk patients for pressure ulcer. What Are We Trying To Accomplish? How will we know a change is an improvement? What changes can we make that could lead to improvement?
