Preventing Pressure Injuries with the Domus 4 Mattress: Real-World Study Results
We are excited to share the results of a recent study on the effectiveness of Powered Alternating Pressure Air Mattress (P-APAM) in real-world settings to prevent pressure injuries (PIs). The study followed 86 patients at medium to high risk of PI for 35 days.
Key Findings:
- 0% Incidence of Pressure Injuries: No patients developed pressure injuries during the study (95% CI: 0.00%-4.28%).
- High Satisfaction Rates: 77.9% of patients were satisfied with the comfort, and 73.0% rated the stability as satisfactory or very satisfactory. All patients were pleased with the mattress’s noise level (100%).
- Caregiver Satisfaction: The caregivers reported ease of use and safety throughout the study.
The study concluded that using P-APAM, alongside standard PI prevention measures, leads to significantly lower pressure injury rates.
