Description

Pressure injuries, also known as pressure ulcers or bedsores, remain a significant concern in hospital settings. These injuries develop due to prolonged pressure on the skin, leading to complications, increased healthcare costs, and extended hospital stays. This capstone project examines prevention and management strategies for pressure injuries using evidence-based practices and QSEN principles. The project emphasizes the importance of proactive measures, including patient mobility, pressure redistribution, and interdisciplinary collaboration, to enhance patient care and outcomes.
