Incidence of Pressure Injury in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

CONCLUSIONS: Study findings indicate that more than 1 in 5 individuals with SCI will develop a PI. Individuals with SCI are at high risk of developing PI, especially in community settings or low- and middle-income developing countries. The findings highlight the importance of further investigation of risk factors and prevention and management strategies for PIs in individuals with SCI.
