NCT ID NCT07355439
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 82 intensive care patients to see how the time they spend in one position affects their risk of developing pressure injuries (bedsores). Researchers checked skin changes like redness, bruising, and moisture, and used a standard risk scale. The goal was to find better ways to prevent these painful injuries in critically ill patients.
