Salles, Nathalie | Jenn, Joanne
Malnutrition is considered as a predictive factor of pressure sores occurrence as well as immobilisation. The effect of nutritional support has been assessed on the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. Data of randomized controlled trials showed that nutritional interventions (oral nutritional supplements or enteral tube feeding) were associated with a significantly lower incidence of pressure ulcer development in at-risk patients compared to routine care. Regarding treatment of pressure ulcers, trials remain heterogeneous with regard to participants, interventions and outcomes; therefore it was not possible to draw any firm conclusions on the effect of nutritional intervention in terms of pressure ulcers healing. This article covers the main literature data with the aim to better assist clinicians in their nutritional strategies.
