| 摘要 | [Objectives] To investigate the current status of pressure injury occurrence in ICU patients with indwelling artificial airways and to analyze its associated factors. [Methods] A prospective observational study was performed involving 300 ICU patients with indwelling artificial airways admitted to Taihe Hospital, Shiyan City, between January 2024 and December 2025. Data on general demographics, artificial airway-related parameters, and Braden Scale scores were collected using a self-designed questionnaire. The patients were categorized into pressure injury and non-pressure injury groups. Univariate analysis followed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis was employed to determine the independent influencing factors. [Results] Among the 300 patients, 54 cases of artificial airway-related pressure injuries were identified, yielding an incidence rate of 18.0%. The lips and oral commissures were the most frequently affected sites, accounting for 53.7% of all injuries. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that prolonged indwelling time, use of subglottic suction catheters, and lateral displacement of the tracheal tube were independent risk factors for pressure injuries, whereas a higher moisture score served as a protective factor (P<0.05). [Conclusions] The incidence of pressure injuries in ICU patients with indwelling artificial airways is notably high. Nurses should prioritize monitoring of indwelling duration, catheter type, catheter position, and local moisture status, and implement timely preventive interventions. |
