Research Priorities for Pressure Ulcer Risk Factors in Spinal Cord Injury Patients

This study highlights key research priorities for identifying and mitigating pressure ulcer (PU) risks in patients with spinal cord injuries (SCI). Focus areas include advanced imaging techniques for early detection, the role of biomarkers in PU development and healing, the impact of chronic inflammatory states, and the effects of comorbidities. Additionally, psychosocial factors, nutritional management, and risk assessment tools are examined, with some topics revealing a 0% response rate, indicating areas needing further investigation. This overview aims to guide future research efforts.

  1. Figure 1. Highest priority risk factor research. (a) Advanced imaging for early pressure ulcer (PU) detection, (b) biomarkers for PU development, (c) biomar-kers for PU healing, (d) chronic systemic inflammatory states, (e) deep-tissue load/internal tissue strains, (f) genetic predisposition, (g) effect of comorbidities on PU risk in spinal cord injury (SCI), (h) microenvironment, (i) nutritional status and management, (j) physiology of PU, (k) psy-chosocial risk factors, (l) risk assessment tools for SCI, (m) risk factors for recurrent PU, (n) factors associated with aging with SCI, and (o) weighted risk factor models.
