Pressure Ulcer Risk Assessment Report: Analysis and Findings

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of pressure ulcer risk assessment, focusing on the application of the Braden scale in healthcare settings. It outlines the methodology of the Braden scale, detailing how different parameters such as sensory perception, moisture levels, activity, mobility, nutrition, and friction/shear are evaluated to determine a patient's risk level. The report explores each category within the scale, explaining their significance and how they contribute to the overall risk assessment. The scoring system of the Braden scale is also discussed, highlighting how the total score indicates the level of risk, ranging from very high to no risk. This assessment helps in understanding the potential for pressure ulcer development and the importance of proactive measures in patient care, ensuring appropriate treatment and management strategies.
