A descriptive-analytical study.
This study was performed on 200 patients who were selected by random sampling. The data collection tool was a 3-part questionnaire. Data were analysed using a t test, chi-square, Fisher's exact test and logistic regression in SPSS v. 24.
The mean age of the participants was 51.93 (SD 14.99) years. The rate of pressure injuries in this study was 19.5%. The most susceptible area for pressure injuries were sacral (35.89%) and gluteal (20.51%), respectively. The pressure injuries was significantly associated with Braden's criteria, age, disease diagnosis and length of hospital stay (p < .05). But there was no statistically significant difference between sex and incidence of pressure injuries (p > .05).
