Abstract

Objectives: Identify the incidence of pressure ulcers (PU) in surgery in patients undergoing spinal fusion performed in the range of 2 years. Material and methods: Descriptive, transversal and retrospective design. Review of medical histories. Results: 269 patients were evaluated, 52% were women and the average age of 58.7 years. The most frequent were supine and prone positions (34% both). PU prevalence was 14%, with 51.4% grade II, the most frequent location was chest and forehead. The highest frequency of occurrence was from 4 hours intervention, but we have not significant relationships between pressure ulcers and other variables. Conclusions: It is necessary to carry out intervention studies to prevent PU in the surgical area, because there is little literature. On the other hand the high incidence found begs the need to increase preventive measures by nurses.
