Development and validation of a nomogram for pressure injury risk prediction in stroke patients: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Study design

Retrospective cohort study.

Objective

This study aimed to identify independent risk factors for pressure injury (PI) during the post-stroke recovery phase, develop and validate a nomogram prediction model to facilitate the identification of high-risk individuals for PI, and establish a theoretical framework for optimizing clinical intervention strategies.

Methods

Retrospective clinical data were collected from 284 hospitalized stroke patients in the recovery phase (including 85 PI cases) at the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College between January 2018 and December 2022. Participants were randomly allocated into training (70%) and internal validation (30%) cohorts. An external validation cohort comprising 60 stroke patients (30 PI cases) fr
