Efficacy of bundle care in reducing pressure ulcers among bedridden patients

Bundle care is a set of three to five evidence-informed practices that improve the quality of care and reduce the risk of pressure ulcers. A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of bundle care on pressure ulcers among bedridden patients in Krishnagiri. A quasi-experimental design was adopted, with 60 patients with mild to moderate pressure ulcers selected. The Braden scale and PUSH score tool was used to assess the risk of pressure ulcer and wound status. The first day pre-test was conducted, followed by intervention implementation. The control group had a higher mean and standard deviation (SD) in pressure ulcer risk and wound status. The experimental group had a significantly higher mean post-test pressure ulcer risk and wound status. The study concluded that bundle care has improved the positive effect among bedridden patients in reducing pressure ulcer risk and wound status. It is evident that bundle care is effective, safe, and more beneficial for bedridden patients with mild to moderate pressure ulcers. The results suggest that bundle care is effective, safe, and more beneficial for bedridden patients.
