Abstract

Hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPI) have been listed as an adverse event, thus a quality care indicator. However, HAPI can be deemed unavoidable if prevention interventions have been implemented and documented. Using a ethnonursing qualitative method, two themes and five influences related to HAPI and electronic documentation emerged.

Electronic documentation of pressure injury prevention by medical-surgical nurses: Diverse and incomplete

Washington, DC, USA

Hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPI) have been listed as an adverse event, thus a quality care indicator. However, HAPI can be deemed unavoidable if prevention interventions have been implemented and documented. Using a ethnonursing qualitative method, two themes and five influences related to HAPI and electronic documentation emerged.
