Since the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) held its consensus conference in April 2016, various wound care specialists and professional organizations have been disseminating their response to the revised pressure injury staging definitions. The purpose of this survey was to get an objective perspective of the new NPUAP terminology and staging definitions changes from wound care colleagues outside the United States.
In an attempt to obtain the opinions of wound care specialists outside the United States, a convenience sample from some countries in Latin America was invited to complete a survey during the Mexican Association for Integral Care and Wound Healing conference. In addition, students enrolled in the International Interprofessional Wound Care Course conducted in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, were also invited to participate in a revised NPUAP staging definition survey.
Survey responses reveal strong support for the changes with consensus agreement greater than 80% on all survey items.
These survey results can contribute to a universal agreement on terminology and definitions for pressure-related wounds, which may ultimately improve patient care.
自国家压力性损伤咨询小组(NPUAP)于2016年4月召开共识会议以来,各伤口护理专家和专业组织一直在传播他们对修订后的压力性损伤分期定义的回应。本次调查的目的是从美国以外的伤口护理同行那里获得对新的NPUAP术语和分期定义变化的客观看法。
为了获取美国以外伤口护理专家的意见,在墨西哥综合护理与伤口愈合协会会议期间,邀请了来自拉丁美洲一些国家的便利样本完成一项调查。此外,参加在加拿大安大略省多伦多举办的国际跨专业伤口护理课程的学生也被邀请参与一项关于NPUAP分期定义修订的调查。
调查回复显示对这些变化的大力支持,所有调查项目的共识率均超过80%。
这些调查结果有助于就压力相关伤口的术语和定义达成普遍共识,这最终可能改善患者护理。
