Aim: The
aim of this study was to determine the incidence of pressure ulcers among the
patients on mechanical ventilation.

Methods: The
type of the study was cross-sectional and prospective. It was carried out in 5
intensive care units of a state hospital located in Western Black Sea region of
Turkey. The sample of the study included 260 patients who began to get
mechanical ventilatory support. Pressure ulcer risk in patients was assessed by
Braden Risk Assessment Scale at 10th hour, 1st week and 2nd week timepoints
following the initiation of mechanical ventilatory support.

Results: Mean age of the patients was 54±10 years;  52.7% were males; and 55.4% had a Body Mass
Index within normal range. It was determined that 46.5% of the patients were
hospitalized due to the diagnosis of a cerebrovascular event; the state of
consciousness was confused in 52.3% and mean Braden Risk
Assessment Scale was 11.0±2.64. It was observed that
the incidence of pressure ulcers was 10.8% at 10th hour, 58.5% at first week
and 71.15% at second week following the beginning of mechanical ventilation
treatment. At the end of second week, stage1 pressure ulcer was developed on
the sacrum in 30% and on coccyx area in 22.7% of the patients.

Conclusion:It
was found that the incidence of pressure ulcer development risk was
significantly high among the patients who underwent mechanical ventilation
treatment. Considering the effect of mechanical ventilator and other factors,
taking primary protective precautions for preventing pressure ulcers was
suggested to be very important.

Mekanik Ventilatördeki Hastalarda Basınç Yarası İnsidansı: Prospektif Bir Çalışma

Öz

Amaç: Bu
çalışmanın amacı mekanik ventilatördeki hastalarda basınç yarası insidansını belirlemektir.

Gereç
ve Yöntem: Araştırmanın tipi kesitsel tipte
prospektiftir. Batı Karadeniz Bölgesinde yer alan bir Devlet Hastanesinin 5
yoğun bakım ünitesinde yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın örneklemini mekanik ventilasyon desteği başlatılan 260 hasta
oluşturmuştur. Braden Risk
Değerlendirme Ölçek puanı ile hastalardaki basınç yarası oluşma riski mekanik ventilasyon
desteği başladıktan sonra 10. saat, 1. hafta ve 2. hafta zaman dilimlerinde
değerlendirilmiştir. İstatistiksel analizlerde sayı, yüzde, ortalama, t testi, Anova ve Pearson Korelasyon analizi
kullanılmıştır.

Bulgular:
Hastaların yaş ortalaması 54±10 yaş;  %52.7’si erkek; %55.4’ünün Beden Kütle İndeksleri
normal aralıktadır.  Hastaların
%46.5’inde serebrovasküler olay tanısı ile yatış yapıldığı; %52.3’ünün  bilinç durumunun konfüze olduğu ve Braden Risk
Değerlendirme Ölçek puanının 11.0±2.64 şeklinde
yüksek risk grubunda olduğu belirlenmiştir. Kadın cinsiyette, bilinç durumu
stupor olan hastalarda ve motor yanıtı dokunma ile çekme tepkisi veren
hastalarda basınç yarası riski anlamlı olarak daha yüksektir. Mekanik
ventilasyon tedavisi başlatıldıktan sonraki 10. saatte
basınç yarası insidansının %10.8; birinci haftada %58.5; ikinci haftada %71.15
olduğu görülmüştür. İkinci haftanın sonunda hastaların %30’unda sakrum, %22.7’sinde
koksik bölgesinde Evre 1 basınç yarası gelişmiştir.

Sonuç:
Mekanik
ventilasyon tedavisi alan hastalarda ventilatörle ilişkili olarak basınç yarası
gelişme insidansının oldukça yüksek olduğu sonucu ortaya çıkmıştır. Mekanik
ventilatör ve diğer faktörlerin de etkisi göz önünde tutularak basınç yarasını
önleme konusunda primer koruma önlemlerinin alınması oldukça önemlidir.
