Effect of preventive care interventions on pressure ulcer rates in a national sample of rural and urban nursing units: Longitudinal associations over 4 years.
This study looked at the effects of nursing care interventions aimed at preventing pressure ulcers in rural and urban hospitals over a 4-year period. This longitudinal study used unit-level data from the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators 2010-2013. The authors analyzed 5761 units (332 rural and 5429 urban) in 772 hospitals (89 rural and 683 urban) that reported ulcer rates in two or more quarters. Outcomes from use of a three-care intervention combination was measured with decreases in pressure ulcers shown from any of those interventions (patients receiving skin assessment on admission, receiving risk assessment on admission, and receiving any risk assessment before the pressure ulcer). An increase in RN skill mix and two nurse outcomes (increase in job satisfaction and intent-to-stay) also led to decreases in ulcer rates.
