Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to follow manufacturer's recommendations when
using low air loss mattress (LAL) for a resident who has a Stage 3 pressure ulcer. This failure affects one
(R35) of three residents in the sample of 18 reviewed for Pressure Ulcer management.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
R35 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses of Stage 3 Pressure ulcer, Parkinson's disease, Dementia,
and Osteoarthritis. R35's physician order sheet indicates a low air loss mattress and a wound treatment
Sacrum-Alginate and dry dressing twice daily.
R35's physician wound report dated 11/21/22 indicated R35 has an unstageable pressure injury on the
coccyx area since 5/13/2022 which is a stage 3 pressure injury since 8/16/22. The wound is currently as
Stage III pressure ulcer on coccyx area. The wound measures 4cm x 2 cmx 0.1cm. There is a large amount
of serous drainage noted. There is large (65 to 100%) pink granulation within the wound bed. The peri
wound skin appearance exhibited maceration. Wound progress: worsening.
On 12/6/22 at 10:46 AM, V5 RN Supervisor/Wound Coordinator and V9 Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA)
observed repositioning R35 to her left side to perform wound care to R35's sacral area. Surveyor observed
fitted sheet covering the LAL mattress with multiple layers of folded linen on top of the mattress. There was
no wound dressing found.
V9 CNA stated that she removed it when she provided incontinent care with R35 earlier. V5 RN stated that
R35 has a stage 3 pressure ulcer, with moderate serous sanguineous drainage, pinkish red tissue with
maceration on surrounding wound. She cleansed the wound with wound cleanser and applied calcium
alginate and covered with a dry dressing. After wound dressing completed, surveyor informed V5 RN of
observation. V5 stated that R35 should not have a fitted sheet covering her LAL mattress and should not
have multiple layers of folded linen underneath R35 as stated in the manufacturer's recommendation. V9
CNA stated that she is not aware that R35 should not have a fitted sheet and folded linen underneath her.
V9 added that no one told her.
On 12/6/22 at 1:30 PM, R35 observed with fitted sheet over the LAL mattress and folded linen.
V5 RN Supervisor presented in-service form dated 11/29/21 indicated that air loss mattress is used for
prevention and treatment of pressure wounds and is suited for immobilized residents with lack of sensory
perception or immobile. No fitted sheets should be used because they compress the air cells and restrict air
flow.
On 12/7/22 at 11:03 PM V12 Nurse Consultant stated that they don't have a policy on usage of low air loss
mattresses.
Facility unable to provide policy on low air loss mattress.
