Abstract

We made an algorithm by extracting the caring elements for the patients to develop a program for pressure ulcer prevention. The algorithm consisted of observation of the patient skin as a beginning point, extraction of the risk factors for pressure ulcer development, intervention to each risk factor, and evaluation. The expert panel identified this algorithm as adequate enough to adopt to the patients.
