What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at how the skin barrier changes in intensive care patients who are at risk for pressure injuries (bedsores). Researchers will use non-invasive biosensors to measure things like skin moisture, acidity, and temperature in areas prone to bedsores. The goal is to understand these changes and find early warning signs to prevent skin damage. About 156 adult ICU patients will take part.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Adult critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and at risk for pressure injury development will be enrolled. Participants will undergo longitudinal, non-invasive biosensor-based assessments of skin barrier function in pressure injury-prone anatomical regions throughout their ICU stay. The population will include both patients who develop pressure injuries and those who do not.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged \>18 years * Admission to the intensive care unit * Initial skin assessment completed within the first 4 hours after ICU admission * Hemodynamically stable enough to undergo follow-up and repeated skin measurements * Intact skin integrity at ICU admission * Willingness to participate in the study, with informed consent provided by the participant or legally authorized representative Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to tolerate position changes * Post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation care period at enrollment * Cardiac arrest or cardiopulmonary resuscitation during follow-up * Severe edema or subcutaneous fluid accumulation * Presence of skin lesions before ICU admission * Systemic dermatologic disease directly affecting skin barrier function
