Abstract:
Background: Nurses who care for patients with pressure injuries often have to work longer shifts and may feel guilty or mentally distressed due to the development of the injury or the patients' delayed recovery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how effectively nurses' knowledge and practices when providing care for patients with pressure injuries are supported by e-learning programs.
Method: Our research was carried out in compliance with PRISMA criteria. To finish the systematic literature review, the databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane were searched. We searched for "learning," "pressure ulcer," "pressure," "ulcer," "pressure ulcer," and "pressure injuries." Databases spanning 2010 to 2020 were included in the search period, and only English-language research was taken into account.
Results: Six papers total—two non-randomized trials and four randomized control trials—were included in this systematic review. Nurses from intensive care units were involved in the majority of the included research. The NPUAP, PUKT, PU evaluation, PU evaluation, and EPUAP scales were used. The interventions used included bedsore treatment and prevention, pressure ulcer screening and treatment programs, and a program for training on the Braden scale and PU classification. The knowledge and practice were outcome measures.
Conclusion: Our comprehensive study highlights the potential of e-learning programs to significantly enhance the knowledge and practice of nursing professionals in managing pressure injuries.
