[Best evidence summary of prevention strategies for pressure injury in adult hospitalized burn patients].

Abstract

Objective: To summarize the best evidence of prevention strategies for pressure injury in adult hospitalized burn patients. Methods: A bibliometric approach was used. Systematic searches were carried out to retrieve the published evidence of prevention strategies for pressure injury in adult hospitalized burn patients in the official websites of relevant academic organizations such as International Society for Burn injury, American Burn Association, and Japanese Dermatology Association, National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel, European Pressure Injury Advisory Panel, Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance International Guidelines Website, foreign language databases such as UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, MedSci, Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Practice Database, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, and PubMed, and Chinese databases such as China Biology Medicine disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and China Clinical Guidelines Library. The literature types include clinical decision-making, evidence summary, guidelines, systematic review, and expert consensus. The search time was till February 21^st, 2023. Two researchers independently screened the literature and evaluated the quality, and other researchers extracted and graded the evidence according to the topic. Results: A total of 10 papers were included, including 6 evidence summaries, 3 guidelines, and 1 expert consensus, all with high literature quality. After extracting evidence and classifying, 27 pieces of best evidences were summarized from three aspects, including prevention training and supervision, risk assessment, and prevention measures of pressure injury. Conclusions: A total of 27 pieces of best evidences of prevention strategies for pressure injury in adult hospitalized burn patients were summarized from 3 aspects. Medical workers can follow the best evidence and give personalized prevention strategies according to the specific condition of adult hospitalized burn patients to reduce the incidence of pressure injury.
