Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS(2023)
摘要
Pressure ulcers continue to severely impact patient outcomes and increase health care costs. We aimed to examine the incidence and risk factors related to pressure ulcers among COVID-19 patients. A retrospective was conducted between March 2020-April 2021. Baseline differences were examined using chi-square and Fischer's exact test. Logistic regression was employed to examine the association of the collected variables to development of new pressure ulcers. 4608 patients were included, of which eighty-three acquired new pressure ulcers. Risk factors were increased age, peripheral artery disease, abnormal albumin levels, but not prone position.
