The Braden Scale is one of the most widely used tools for predicting the development of pressure sores.

Objective: To analyze the applicability of the Braden Scale to individuals admitted to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with the nursing diagnosis Impaired Physical Mobility, in its prediction potential ...

Machine learning methods were used to a develop a logistic algorithm for predicting categorical shifts between low risk and high risk for pressure injury among hospitalised patients. This machine ...

The Braden scale is used to assess the risk of pressure ulcers 10, 11, and our prior study indicates that the Braden scale is useful for predicting pneumonia after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) 12.

The industry-standard tool for predicting the risk of pressure injury, the paper-based Braden Scale, has not changed since its origin in the 1980s and has a 54% accuracy rate, the researchers note.

Barbara Braden became known internationally for developing a tool in the 1980s that’s widely used in hospitals and nursing homes to assess and predict patients’ likelihood of developing ...

The risk of falls and pressure ulcers were assessed by the Morse Fall Scale (MFS) and the Braden Sore Scale (BSS) that were applied by the nursing staff on the day of examination (26, 27). For ...

Abstract: Activity levels in nursing home residents were measured with accelerometers over one week as part of a multicenter randomized controlled trial, and complexity of the resulting activity ...

The Braden Scale (BS) is widely used in routine nursing evaluation programmes to predict pressure ulcer events in patients. 17 Because the BS examines several factors that could contribute to ...
