Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury (MDRPI) is a localized skin and/or subcutaneous tissue injury that occurs due to the pressure exerted by devices used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, taking the form of the medical device used. Medical device-related pressure injuries are an important adverse event with a high incidence and prevalence both in our country and in the world, accounting for more than 30% of hospital-related injuries. Medical device-related pressure injury significantly affects the quality of life of patients, but also negatively affects the cost of care for both the patient and providers. Although the most important task in preventing medical device-related pressure injuries falls on nurses, it is quite noticeable that nurses' knowledge levels of MDRPI are low in the studies conducted. MDRPI is an important issue that is ignored in nursing education and work areas in our country. In order to prevent pressure injuries associated with medical devices, it is necessary to invest more in early detection of MDRPI and improving the quality of care, studies including MDRPI risk assessment and reporting strategies are needed. In the project to be carried out in this context, it is aimed to evaluate the impact of training applied to nurses to prevent MDRPI.

Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury account for more than 30% of hospital-related injuries and their incidence has been increasing steadily in recent years. According to the meta-analysis studies (n:126.150 ) the pooled incidence of MDRPI was found to be 12% (95% Cl 8-18) and the pooled prevalence of MDRPIwas found to be 10% (95% Cl 6-16). As can be seen, MDRPI is an important adverse event with a high incidence and prevalence in the world. Despite this, it is known that the MDRPI risk assessment and reporting system is used only in developed countries such as the United Kingdom, the USA and Canada on a limited basis. Medical device-related pressure injury significantly affects the quality of life of patients, but also negatively affects the cost of care for both the patient and providers. Although the incidence rate of MDRPI is high, the fact that nurses have a low level of MDRPI knowledge draws attention to the importance that should be shown to this issue. In the studies conducted, it is emphasized that in order to prevent MDRPI, more investments should be made in early detection of MDRPI and improvement of the quality of care, and studies including MDRPI risk assessment and reporting strategies are needed.

MDRPI is an important issue that is ignored in nursing education and work areas. The most important task in preventing The most important task in preventing TCIBI falls on nurses. Because patients who are at risk for the development of MDRPI need to be closely monitored continuously and prevention initiatives are needed. In this context, it is extremely important for nurses to have knowledge about the subject and to have up-to-date and evidence-based information in order to prevent MDRPI. However, when the literature is examined, it is seen that the studies measuring nurses' MDRPI knowledge are limited. In the studies conducted, it was found that nurses' knowledge levels about MDRPI were low falls on nurses.

In this context, it is extremely important for nurses to have knowledge about the subject and to have up-to-date and evidence-based information in order to prevent MDRPI. However, when the literature is examined, it is seen that the studies measuring nurses' MDRPI knowledge are limited. In the studies conducted, it was found that nurses' knowledge levels about MDRPI were low. Although its prevalence is high, education, risk assessment, reporting, prevention strategies about MDRPI are very inadequate and evidence-based studies are needed.

In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of training applied to nurses to prevent MDRPI The hypotheses of the study:

H1: The MDRPI knowledge level of nurses is low before the training application.

H2: The incidence of MDRPI is high before the training application.

H03: There is no Deciency between the knowledge levels of nurses before and after the training application.

H4: Training application increases the knowledge level of nurses about MDRPI.

H5: Training application reduces the incidence of MDRPI.

H6: As the level of knowledge of MDRPI of nurses increases, the incidence of MDRPI also increases.

Although the web-based training to be given within the scope of the study is applied to nurses, the results will be evaluated on both nurses and patient care results. For this reason, both nurses and intensive care inpatients constitute the sample group.

Inclusion Criteria:

Criteria for inclusion of nurses:

-Volunteer

Criteria for inclusion of patients:

• Volunteer
• Who has been hospitalized in intensive care for at least 24 hours
• Do not have a pressure injury during admission to intensive care

Exclusion Criteria:

Exclusion criteria for nurses:

-Do not volunteer

Criteria for inclusion of patients:

• Do not volunteer
• Was admitted to intensive care in less than 24 hours and transferred
• Patients with pressure injuries during admission to intensive care

The three months incidence of medical device-related pressure injuries of patients admitted to intensive care before and after the training will be examined. At this stage, it will be conducted by two independent observers. Simultaneous monitoring will be carried out during the first week, and the harmony between the observers will be evaluated by a third party, and it will be ensured that the observations are measured Decently with the same standard. However, the bias will be reduced by having different people enter the data of the research and analyze the data.
