Registered outcomes3
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Rate of Development of Unit-acquired Pressure Ulcers | During MICU admission | Total count of the number of patients who developed unit acquired pressure ulcers during the study (count) |
| Secondary | The Time to Develop the First Unit-acquired Pressure Ulcer | Days from admission to HAPI | The number of days spent in the intensive care unit prior to the development of a pressure ulcer |
| Secondary | Maximum Severity of Unit Acquired Pressure Injury (UAPI) | During MICU admission | HAPI staged by trained clinical nurses using the National Pressure Advisory Panel (NPUAP) staging definitions in which Stage 1 is the least severe with severity progressing through Stage 2, 3, 4, and unstageable. Unstageable is an evolving type of pressure injury evolving into a Stage 3 or 4. |
