Abstract: The Braden Scale is a standardized, evidence-based assessment tool commonly used in health care to assess and document a patient’s risk for developing pressure injuries. Risk factors are rated on a scale from 1 to 4, with 1 being “completely limited” and 4 being “no impairment.” The scores from the six categories are added, and the total score indicates a patient’s risk for developing a pressure injury based on these ranges: Mild risk: 15-18, Moderate risk: 13-14, High risk: 10-12, Severe risk: less than 9. A pressure ulcer is a localized injury to the skin or underlying tissues, usually over a bony prominence, as a result of pressure in combination with shear or friction occluding blood flow to that area. The most common sites for pressure ulcer are sacrum, heels, elbows, heels, hips, ankles, shoulders, back and occiput. The factors that influence the development of pressure sores are the intensity of the pressure, the duration of the pressure exerted on the skin and the ability of the patient's tissue to tolerate it. Now it is viewed that pressure ulcers are as a result of negligence, especially in nursing care. So the prevention of pressure ulcer begins with the assessment of the knowledge of nursing personnel who provides care, identifying the client at risk and to adapt certain preventive strategies to reduce the prevalence of pressure ulcer. To assess the knowledge and practice of staff nurses regarding use of Braden's scale. To assess the attitude of staff nurses regarding use of Braden's scale. To find the relationship between knowledge and practice of staff nurses regarding pressure ulcer. To determine the effectiveness of Braden's scale regarding pressure ulcer. To find out the association between knowledge and practice of staff nurses with their selected demographic variables. Non-experimental randomized control research design was adopted. The population in this study included staff nurses of Paras HMRI hospital Patna Bihar. Size of the population consists of 40 staff nurses of Paras HMRI hospital Patna Bihar by using simple random sampling technique. The results showed that the calculated‘t’ value in table morning and evening shift knowledge group was statistically significant at P<0.05% level. It can be concluded that Braden’s scale was effective regarding pressure ulcer. The results showed that the calculated‘t’ value in the morning and evening shift attitude group was statistically significant at P<0.05% level. It can be concluded that Braden's scale was effective regarding pressure ulcer. The results showed that the calculated‘t’ value in the pre-test and post-test knowledge was statistically significant at P<0.05% level. It can be concluded that Braden's scale was effective regarding pressure ulcer.
Keywords: Assessment, knowledge, pressure ulcer, attitude, practice, Braden’s scale, staff nurses.
