NCT ID NCT07696416
First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study investigates whether blood pressure levels influence the development of bedsores (pressure ulcers) in adult patients confined to bed in an internal medicine intensive care unit. Researchers will monitor blood pressure and other vital signs daily, and assess skin condition using the Norton Pressure Ulcer Scale. The goal is to understand if blood pressure is a key factor in bedsore formation, which could lead to better prevention strategies.
