There is growing evidence that medical device-related pressure ulcers (MDRPUs) are an increasing healthcare concern in all aspects of care. It is especially important to develop an individualised care plan for people at the end of life to prevent pressure ulceration and to treat this if it occurs. Tissue viability nurses have a responsibility to review and assess new prophylactic devices and dressings, to ensure a high standard of care is provided. This article describes the use of a soft silicone dressing, Kliniderm foam silicone lite, in combination with best practice, to prevent MDRPUs in the oncology setting. Three case studies show that the dressing helped avoid the occurrence of ulceration on the ears and nose in patients receiving oxygen through a nasal cannula.
越来越多的证据表明，医疗器械相关性压疮（MDRPUs）在医疗护理的各个方面都是一个日益严重的问题。为临终患者制定个性化的护理计划以预防压疮并在发生压疮时进行治疗尤为重要。组织修复护士有责任审查和评估新的预防设备和敷料，以确保提供高标准的护理。本文介绍了在肿瘤环境中使用软性硅胶敷料 Kliniderm 泡沫硅胶 Lite 结合最佳实践预防 MDRPUs 的方法。三个案例研究表明，该敷料有助于避免接受鼻导管吸氧的患者耳朵和鼻子发生溃疡。
