Preventing Device-Related Pressure Injuries in ICU Adults
Treatments studied
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests an AI-guided nursing care plan to help prevent pressure injuries in ICU patients with medical devices like breathing tubes or catheters. It may be a good fit if you are in the ICU and want to help improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult aged 18 or older
- You have at least one medical device in place for treatment or monitoring
- You do not have a current pressure injury caused by a medical device
- Your expected ICU stay is at least 24 hours
- You do not have only a peripheral IV catheter as your sole medical device
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 trial tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in patients staying in an intensive care unit. The AI may help nurses provide better care to reduce these injuries.
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 study tests whether a gel made from aloe vera and peppermint can help prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in patients staying in the intensive care unit. Pressure injuries are painful sores that form when skin stays in one position too long, and this gel might help protect vulnerable skin.
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.
