| Popis: | In the critical care population, heart rate and rhythm, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation are monitored continuously, providing immediate feedback regarding any changes in patient status. Hemodynamic instability is a term commonly used by clinicians to describe labile changes in cardiopulmonary status, although this term is poorly defined in the literature. The clinician's perception of hemodynamic instability may cause a delay or omission in turning, repositioning, and other interventions to advance patient mobility and may contribute to pressure ulcer formation. The intensive care unit's practice culture and individual clinician perceptions regarding hemodynamic instability may lead to staff not turning patients out of fear that they are "too unstable to turn." This article provides a discussion of the link between pressure ulcers and immobility, provides a review of current literature on progressive mobility and hemodynamic instability, and presents the results of a critical care consensus panel on safe and effective turning of critical care patients. |
