A prospective randomised controlled experimental study was planned to compare the effects of pressure sore dressing using topical haemoglobin and traditional gauze dressing using saline on the healing process and cost of pressure sores in patients with pressure sores.
Pressure sores are a serious health problem because they increase mortality, decrease quality of life, prolong hospital stays, increase patient care costs, impair body image, prolong the healing process, and have many other negative effects.
The European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP), National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPIAP), and Pan Pacific Pressure Ulcer Association (PPPIA) 2019 guidelines report that the prevalence of pressure ulcers in healthcare settings ranges from 10% to 72.5%, with large variations between different clinics and geographies. In the United States, the cost of pressure sore treatment to organisations is estimated to be $11 billion annually. Pressure sores will continue to be an important public health problem today and in the future, especially due to the increasing number of elderly people in the world and in our country, chronic diseases, comorbidity, and palliative conditions.
Therefore, the study was planned as a prospective randomised controlled experimental trial to compare the effects of pressure sore dressing using topical haemoglobin and traditional gauze dressing using saline on the healing process and cost of pressure sores in patients with pressure sores.

| Pressure ulcer scale for healing | PUSH is an acronym for Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing. The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel developed this tool to monitor pressure healing over time. The PUSH Tool monitors three parameters: surface area of the wound, wound exudate, and type of wound tissue. Wounds are measured using a centimeter ruler. The scores are rated from 0 to 10 according to the size of the wound. | 2 months |
