Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity of the Braden and Waterlow subscales in predicting pressure ulcer risk in hospitalized patients. This is a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study. Braden sensory perception and friction/shear subscales and Waterlow mobility and appetite subscales were the most relevant predictors.Entities:
