Study on blood pressure and bedsores in ICU patients
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial looks at how blood pressure affects the development of bedsores in patients who are in the intensive care unit and unable to move. You may be able to join if you're between 18 and 70 years old, can't leave your bed, and do not already have bedsores.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a special care plan to prevent bedsores (pressure injuries) in intensive care patients and looks at whether it helps reduce both how often they happen and the costs. It may help if you or a loved one is admitted to the ICU for at least 24 hours and does not already have a bedsore.
This study looks at how blood oxygen levels and other measures relate to the risk of pressure injuries (bedsores) in people staying in the intensive care unit for at least 3 days. It may help find ways to prevent these injuries.
This trial uses an ultrasound score to see if it can predict which ICU patients will get bedsores (pressure injuries). It has two parts: first, they develop and test the score; second, they check if telling nurses the score helps prevent bedsores.
This study looks at whether a common ICU risk score (SAPS 2) can predict who will develop a pressure ulcer (bed sore) during their stay. If you are an adult admitted to the ICU without a pressure ulcer already, this trial may help improve care for future patients.
This study tests if a web-based training program for nurses can help prevent bed sores (pressure injuries) in intensive care patients. It looks at both how nurses learn and how patients' skin health improves.
This trial tests a new way to prevent bedsores (pressure injuries) while patients lie on their stomachs for breathing support. It's for adults in the ICU with severe lung problems who are on a ventilator.
