This study tests whether a wound covering made from donated human placenta, called NeoThelium FT, helps heal chronic pressure ulcers (bedsores) better than standard care alone. About 148 adults with pressure ulcers on the pelvis or legs will be randomly assigned to receive either…

This study tests whether a gel made from aloe vera and peppermint can prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Forty adults who are at risk for bedsores will be randomly assigned to receive either the natural gel or standard hospital care. The m…

This study tests whether an ultrasound-based risk score can better predict and prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in critically ill ICU patients. In phase 1, researchers will check how accurately the score identifies high-risk patients. In phase 2, some patients will receive nu…

This study tests whether playing a person's favorite music before and during wound care can reduce pain and help pressure injuries (bed sores) heal faster. Researchers will compare wound care with music to standard care without music in 50 older adults living in long-term care ho…

This study will develop and test a digital twin-haptic mixed reality simulation to teach nursing students how to manage pressure injuries (bedsores). About 130 second-year nursing students will be randomly assigned to either the mixed reality simulation or a standard high-fidelit…
