Mobile Application-Assisted Pressure Injury Management

In this study, individuals will be monitored for 28 days. They will be asked to fill out the Pressure Injury Information Form and the Pressure Injury Skills Checklist for Caregivers to be informed about pressures throughout the study process. The researcher will fill out the Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool to ensure that their pressures are improving. Individuals who will undergo the intervention will use the mobile application. Face-to-face training will be provided to individuals. Individual-specific audio reminders will be based on daily living activities and will be delivered via the mobile application according to changes in individual dependencies. After 30 days, individuals will be asked to fill out the Mobile Health Application Acceptance Scale, the Pressure Injury Knowledge Scale for Caregivers, and the Pressure Injury Skills Checklist. The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool will be filled out by the researcher.

In this study, individuals will be monitored for 28 days. In order to monitor their knowledge about pressure injuries, individuals will be asked to complete the Pressure Injury Information Form for Caregivers and the Pressure Injury Skills Checklist to monitor their skill levels about pressure injuries throughout the study period. The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool will be completed by the researcher to perform a physical examination of the patient and to assess the healing of the individual's pressure injury. Individuals in the control group will be interviewed twice by phone. Individuals with pressure injuries will be trained by a team consisting of a physician, nurse, dietician, and physiotherapist. Individuals will be interviewed twice by phone. After 30 days, individuals will be asked to complete the Mobile Health Application Acceptance Scale, the Pressure Injury Knowledge Scale for Caregivers, and the Pressure Injury Skills Checklist.
