Resumo: This study aimed to identify nursing team’s knowledge on treatment and preventive measures of pressure ulcers at a hospital in the Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Fifteen nursing technicians and assistants from medical and surgical clinics participated in this study. The following preventive measures were identified in their answers: changes in the patients’ lying position (100%); moisturizing the skin with oil (60%); eggshell mattress (80%); cushion (40%); massage (20%), among others. As for treatments, coverings, medicines and solutions were quoted. As for the competence of these professionals, 33,3% stated that they followed medical prescription, and none of them quoted nursing prescription. The results of this study demonstrated that the nursing team in this hospital knows several recommended practices both for prevention and treatment of PU, although some mentioned old fashioned and misled behaviors. The team ignores nurses’ role in wound caring, pointing to the need of ongoing education.

Participaram 15 Técnicos e Auxiliares em Enfermagem das clínicas médica e cirúrgica. Foram identificadas nas respostas medidas preventivas: mudança de decúbito (100%); hidratação da pele com óleo (60%); colchão caixa de ovo (80%); coxim (40%); massagem (20%), dentre outras. Para tratamento foram citadas coberturas, medicamentos e soluções. Quanto à competência dos profissionais 33,3% disseram seguir prescrição médica e nenhum citou a prescrição do enfermeiro. Os resultados demonstraram que a equipe de enfermagem do hospital possui conhecimento de diversas práticas recomendadas tanto para a prevenção quanto para o tratamento de UP, apesar de citarem condutas errôneas e ultrapassadas. A equipe desconhece o papel do enfermeiro frente ao cuidado de feridas, apontando para a necessidade da realização de educação continuada.Este estudio tiene como objetivo identificar el conocimiento del equipo de enfermería del hospital referente a tratamiento y a medidas de prevención de la UP.

El equipo desconoce la función del enfermero delante al cuidado de heridas, apuntando para la necesidad de realización de educación continua.Universidade Federal do Paraná2008-08-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/article/view/1195610.5380/ce.v13i1.11956Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 13, n. 1 (2008)Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 13, n. 1 (2008)Cogitare Enfermagem; v. 13, n. 1 (2008)2176-91331414-853610.5380/ce.v13i1reponame:Cogitare Enfermagem (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)instacron:UFPRporhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/article/view/11956/8437Martins, Dulce AparecidaSoares, Fabiana Fernandes Regoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-05-13T14:17:48Zoai:revistas.ufpr.br:article/11956Revistahttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/cogitare/oaicogitare@ufpr.br2176-91331414-8536opendoar:2016-05-13T14:17:48Cogitare Enfermagem (Online) - Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)false
