Abstract:

Skin tears is one of the common skin injuries in elderly hospitalized patients, except for stress injuries. After skin damage, the damage degree is serious, which eventually leads to the increase of hospitalization costs and safety risks. At present, many foreign scholars have studied it, while only a few domestic scholars have conducted multi-center cross-sectional studies on it. Medical institutions have not paid enough attention to it and trained enough, nursing staff lack of cognition and related knowledge, and no systematic and standardized intervention measures have been formed for the prevention and nursing of skin tears. This consensus is based on the existing research at home and abroad, combined with the characteristics of elderly patients and the scope of diagnosis and treatment, respectively from the classification of skin tears, injury site, risk factors, causes, risk management, prevention and care and other aspects of the discussion to form a national expert consensus, to provide basis and guidance for elderly patients skin management and clinical nursing practice.

Key words: Skin tears, Elderly patients, Prevention, Management, Consensus
