CE541 Perioperative Nurses Lead the Way in
Managing Surgical Patients’ Skin Integrity Skin breakdown affects the more than 2.5 million hospitalized patients each year in the U.S. Studies have shown that patients who develop pressure ulcers have an increased rate of mortality. The people most affected are the elderly and people with a major injury or comorbid disease. Anesthetized patients cannot adjust their position in response to physiological discomfort and lack of sensa- tion. The state of anesthesia (general, local, block or sedation) and anesthetic agents may compromise physiological response to ischemic tissue under pres- sure. This module will provide nurses with evidence-based practice changes that will promote their management of skin integrity in the OR.

This continuing educational module will challenge some sacred cows and provide guidance to help evaluate available studies so you can put them out to pasture.
