First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study compares two methods to prevent pressure ulcers (bedsores) in critically ill patients who must lie face-down (prone) for breathing support. About 262 ICU patients will receive either hyperoxygenated fatty acids or hydrocolloid dressings on at-risk areas. The goal is to see which approach reduces sores and complications better.
