A Fully Automated Pulsating Support System for Pressure Injury Prevention and Treatment in 10 Belgium Nursing Homes: An Observational Study

CONCLUSIONS: Low cumulative PI incidence findings were observed with use of the mattress for the prevention of PIs and resulted in improvements in existing PIs, results which are consistent with several existing studies. The majority of the caregivers, residents, and family members evaluated the mattress as comfortable. Future research is needed to corroborate findings in larger randomized clinical trials.
