Retrospective investigation of pressure injury in COVID-19 patients followed on invasive mechanical ventilator support.

In this study, we aimed to investigate pressure injury (PI) and its associated factors in COVID-19 patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). This was designed as a retrospective, descriptive and correlational study. In this study, there was no sample selection, and the data were coll...

      ab: In this study, we aimed to investigate pressure injury (PI) and its associated factors in COVID-19 patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). This was designed as a retrospective, descriptive and correlational study. In this study, there was no sample selection, and the data were collected by reviewing the files of 438 patients who had been followed up on IMV in the intensive care unit (ICU) with a diagnosis of COVID-19 between April 30, 2020, and April 30, 2022. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) program. A total of 305 pressure injuries occurred in 36.3% of 438 patients receiving IMV. It was found that the length of IMV stay of the patients accelerated the occurrence of PI and that the length of stay in the intensive care unit, albumin and hemoglobin levels, Braden Pressure Sore Risk Assessment Score, APACHE-II value, nutritional status, glutamine supplementation, and vasopressor use were found to be significantly correlated with the incidence of PI (p < 0.05). Patients with COVID-19 who were followed up on IMV had a high incidence of PI, and prolonged ICU stays and intubations duration as well as low albumin and hemoglobin levels increased the occurrence of PI. Hence, it is recommended that the PI risk levels of COVID-19 patients followed up on IMV should be evaluated frequently and nursing interventions should be implemented according to the evaluations. • PI occurred in 36.3% of COVID-19 patients followed up with IMV support. • Prolonged ICU stays and intubations duration as well as low albumin and hemoglobin levels increased the occurrence of PI. • Occurrence of PI was 4.6 times higher in patients with a BMI <18.4, 3.1 times higher in enteral-fed patients compared to parenterally fed patients, and 2.5 times higher in patients receiving vasopressor support than those not receiving vasopressor support.
