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.

This trial tests a care program called the IDEAL SKIIN CARES bundle, which aims to prevent pressure injuries (bed sores) in hospital patients. It may help you avoid developing painful skin wounds during your stay.
This study is testing a new nursing care plan to prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in the ICU and see if it lowers how often they happen and what they cost. If you are in the ICU and don't have any bedsores yet, this might help you avoid getting one.
This study tracks how many patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) develop pressure sores (bedsores) and aims to find factors that predict them. Participation involves monitoring during your ICU stay to help improve prevention and care for future patients.
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 study uses a special ultrasound test to measure the health of the skin and tissue over the tailbone in ICU patients, to predict who might get a pressure injury (bed sore). If the test works well, it could help doctors take early steps to prevent bed sores in high-risk patients.
This study tests a web-based training program for nurses to help prevent pressure injuries (bed sores) in intensive care patients. It looks at how the training affects both nurses' knowledge and patient outcomes.
