Turkish nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practices in the management of incontinence associated dermatitis: A descriptive and cross-sectional study
This study found that intensive care and palliative care nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding IAD were insufficient. Considering that IAD is encountered more frequently in these units, it is essential to provide continuous and practical training to nurses about IAD, use risk assessment tools to prevent and treat IAD, determine protocols, establish clinical guidelines, and implement and standardize them.
