A Prospective Study Evaluating the Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing to Assess Stage II, Stage III, and Stage IV Pressure Ulcers
Ostomy Wound Management, 05/18/09
Günes UY et al. - The total PUSH score as well as the length x width item in the tool accurately differentiated between healed and nonhealed ulcers. Although the PUSH tool is practical, easy-to-use, and generally sensitive to change, some modifications would improve its value — ie, a wound size/depth subscale. Additional studies to help clinicians more accurately evaluate the effectiveness of their interventions, including studies to determine whether wound measurements alone may suffice to monitor healing, are needed.
