Intensive Care Nurses’ Perceptions, Knowledge, and Attitudes Toward Pressure Injury Prevention in Prone Position Patients: A Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study in Shanghai, China
Although ICU nurses had a positive perception of PI prevention in prone-positioned patients, their knowledge was insufficient, and their attitudes were moderate. To address these gaps, healthcare administrators should implement targeted strategies and update evidence-based protocols for PI prevention in prone-ventilated patients. Improving nurses' knowledge and fostering a proactive attitude can enhance clinical practices and patient outcomes.
