Condition: Pressure Injuries · Caregiver · Community Dwelling Older Adult · Sponsor: Singapore General Hospital
Community-acquired pressure injuries are pressure injuries that developed outside of hospital, typically in the patient's own home environment. Pressure injuries (PI) used to be commonly known as bedsores or pressure ulcers. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a community-based pressure injury (PI) care bundle is effective in treating and preventing pressure injuries in home settings. It will also assess how feasible it is to implement this care bundle in Singapore's community care context. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the PI care bundle help improve pressure injury healing (shown by at least a 3-point reduction on the PUSH score)? 2. Can the care bundle prevent the development of new pressure injuries? 3. How well do caregivers learn and apply PI care knowledge after receiving the educational intervention? 4. How practical and acceptable is this care bundle for use in home settings? The investigators will compare the PI care bundle to routine care (control group) to see if the care bundle works better for managing pressure injuries at home. Success will be measured using the PUSH tool, which scores pressure injuries from 0 (completely healed) to 17 (most severe). A reduction of at least 3 points on this scale will indicate meaningful improvement. Participants and their caregivers will: Be split into two groups - one group will use the new care plan (receive the PI care bundle), and the other will continue with their routine care. Hav…
