Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

PENFUP FASE 2, It is a multicenter study by parallel conglomerates, planned in order to evaluate the efficacy between two levels of frequency of postural change in intensive care units for adults of hospitals in various regions of Colombia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Taking into account a design effect of 6.7, Investigators planned to include 150 participants from each ICU. Investigators did calculate that a total of 22 ICUs are required, in which 11 will be assigned to the low frequency and 11 will be assigned to a high frequency group of postural change until obtaining a total of 1,650 patients in each arm of the study and a total of 3,300 participants in the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

High frequency postural change

Repositioning or rotation of patients hospitalized in bed in intensive care units will be carried out with a frequency interval that we call "high-frequency". It has to be performed on each patient between an interval less than or equal to every 2 hours in a full day (24 hours) (minimum goal of 8-10 in 24 hours subtracting 2 or 4 at night and not alter the circadian cycle). The position must be modified in each postural change to the right lateral, supine, left lateral, supine, or prone position to supine position. The repositioning will be provided until a patient is discharged from ICU, die or begin ambulation. When providing each repositioning, avoid dragging the patient, the shear, and the friction to increase UPP risk. This must be applied to avoiding massage. Patients in any position should use pressure-reducing items such as pillows.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

High frequency postural change

Intervention Type OTHER

Repositioning of patients hospitalized in bed in intensive care units will be carried out with a frequency interval that we call "high-frequency" to be performed on each patient between an interval between less than or equal to every 2 hours in a full day (24 hours) (minimum goal of 8-10 in 24 hours subtracting 2 or 4 at night and not alter the circadian cycle). The position must be modified in each postural change to right lateral, supine, left lateral, or prone to supine if the position changes every 2 hrs.

Conventional care

Repositioning or rotation of patients hospitalized will be the conventional or usual care. Units in this group are not going to receive any intervention. Will be only observed in their current intervention of repositioning.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Conventional care

Intervention Type OTHER

Repositioning of patients hospitalized will be performed in the current way it is commonly applied to patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* The ICU manage adult patients, over 18 years of age, with any type of emphasis (surgical, medical, neurological, or mixed);
* Patients are admitted in critical condition (with life support);
* The director accepts the commitment of the care assigned in the randomization (for a period of 3 months).

Exclusion Criteria

* Intermediate care units in which patients mobilize themselves.
* Covid patients or other patients exposed to different mobilization patterns (e.g., 12 hours prone vs 12 supine)
