Education and counseling of patients and caregivers, either face-to-face or using various communication technologies, are reported to have significant effects. Nurses are in a key position in the education and counseling of patients and their relatives for the prevention of pressure injury. Although the share of health technologies in the management of pressure injury is important, it is also important for nurses to use these technologies. Web-based education, which is a part of health technologies, is defined as an education and training program created by using the features of internet and computer technologies.
To prevent pressure injuries; It has been determined that there are a limited number of studies in which training, telephone monitoring and counseling are provided to caregivers The originality of this study, which was conducted to evaluate the effect of web-based training given to caregivers on the pressure injury development of bedridden patients, addiction independence level and care burden of caregivers; The training is designed as web-based and creates a guide that caregivers can use during the care process.

| interventions to be applied to the experimental group (web-based training and consultancy ) | Other | Web-based education and counseling services will be provided as an intervention. Web-based education will be provided to the caregiver in the patient's room in two face-to-face sessions within forty-eight hours before the patient is discharged. Counseling will include telephone follow-up and home visits after discharge. Telephone follow-up will be done once a week, for a total of 8 times, and home visits will be done 3 times over an 8-week period. The results will be assessed using the Braden Pressure Injury Risk Scale, Barthell Index, and data collection tools for patients in the experimental group, and the Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale will be used for caregivers. |

| Experimental group | Other | Web-based training will be shared with patient relatives before the patient is discharged. A home visit will be made 2-3 days after the patient is discharged. Data collection forms will be collected by the researcher at each home visit. A total of four home visits and eight telephone follow-ups will be made within two months. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Findings regarding sociodemographic characteristics | Evaluation of data that may be related to pressure injuries for patients and caregivers. Data such as patient's age, height, weight, chronic diseases and data such as caregivers' age, inclination, and caregiving duration will be evaluated as averages and percentages. | 8 weeks, "up to two months". |
| Evaluation of the results regarding the patient's level of dependency and independence | According to the total scores of the Barthell Life Activities Index; 0-20 points: "Fully dependent", 21-61 points: "Extremely dependent", 62-90 points: "Moderately dependent", 91-99 points: "Mildly dependent" and 100 points: "Fully independent" | 8 weeks, "up to two months". |
| Assessment of patient's pressure injury risk score | According to the braden pressure injury risk assessment scale: The total scale score is between 6 and 23. As the scores from the scale decrease, the risk of developing a pressure injury increases. Individuals with a scale score of 12 and below are considered to be at high risk for developing a pressure injury, those with a score of 13-14 are considered to be at medium risk, and those with a score of 15-16 are considered to be at low risk. According to the inclusion criteria for this study, patients must be assessed as high and medium risk according to the Braden pressure injury risk assessment scale. | 8 weeks, "up to two months". |
| Results regarding the caregiver's care burden | According to the zarit caregiver burden scale: If the resulting score is between 22-46 points, it is defined as 'light load', if it is between 47-55 points, it is defined as 'moderate load', and if it is between 56-110 points, it is defined as 'severe load'. | 8 weeks, "up to two months". |
