In a group of patients living in a long-term nursing home facility, (Patient population) how effective is repositioning every two hours (Intervention) compared to not repositioning every two hours (Comparison) in reducing the risk for pressure ulcers (Outcome) during two months stay?

This question can be addressed through a clinical trial that compares the risk for pressure ulcers in patients living in a long-term nursing home facility who are repositioned every two hours with those who are not. The study should include information such as patient demographics, preexisting comorbidities and other factors that could potentially influence outcome, as well as details on how often they were repositioned to ensure accuracy of data collection. It is also important to choose an appropriate control group in order to minimize potential biases when making any comparisons.

The research design should take into account all possible variables by randomly assigning participants into treatment or control groups then measuring incidence of pressure ulcers between them over time during the two month period. Data gathered during this process should then be analyzed via statistical methods like chi-square or logistic regression so that results can be interpreted more accurately.

Ultimately this research would help determine the efficacy of this intervention in reducing the incidence of pressure ulcers during extended stays—which could then be used to inform future practice guidelines or update existing ones accordingly. By doing so it would allow healthcare providers to better serve their patients with improved prevention and outcomes, as well as more efficient care.
