ObjectiveTo enhance nurses'awareness of pressure ulcer management and reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers by using the risk early warning management idea. MethodsWe analyzed the data of patients with pressure ulcers and patients at high risk of pressure ulcers reported through nursing software between January 2009 and December 2011.Then,we timely and actively gave instructions and formulated corrective measures for the weak points in order to optimize pressure ulcer management process. ResultsNurses'awareness of prevention of pressure ulcers was improved,and the number of patients at high risk of pressure ulcers reported was increased year by year.From 2009 to 2011,the ratio of extremely high-risk and high-risk patients to all discharged patients was respectively 0.76%,1.01% and 0.76%;while from 2009 to 2011,the rate of in-hospital pressure ulcers hard to avoid was respectively 0.06%,0.06% and 0.02%. ConclusionBased on pressure ulcers wound team management,training nurses'early warning management idea,assigning corresponding responsibilities and management goals can help to standardize the management of pressure ulcers and raise the discipline level unceasingly.
