Brief Summary:
The aim of this clinical trial is to determine whether 5-layer hydrocellular dressings are effective in preventing the development of pressure sores during prone positioning in the intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are:
\- are hydrocellular dressings the best strategy for preventing pressure sores? is this strategy simpler and less costly? The researchers will compare hydrocellular dressings with hydrocolloid dressings to find out whether they are more effective in preventing the development of pressure sores in the prone position.
Participants will be given either hydrocellular or hydrocolloid dressings, and caregivers will assess whether or not pressure sores develop after prone positioning.
Detailed Description:
Hydrocellular dressings will be compared with hydrocolloid dressings to determine their effectiveness in preventing pressure ulcers during ventral decubitus in intensive care. The dressings will cover the skin in at-risk areas, and caregivers will assess whether or not pressure sores develop in these areas after prone positioning. The stage of these pressure sores will also be assessed.
The time spent on each strategy and the cost per strategy will also be evaluated. Dressings will be applied for the entire period during which participants are placed in the prone position. If they develop pressure sores during this period, they will be followed up until their discharge from intensive care to study the evolution of these pressure sores.
