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 implement pressure relieving interventions and
re-evaluate the effectiveness of a pressure ulcer treatment when the wound did not improve for one of three
residents (R2) reviewed for pressure ulcers in the sample of five.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
The facility's Pressure Injury Prevention and Management policy revised 2/10/2025 documents, the facility
is committed to the prevention of avoidable pressure injuries, and to provide treatment and services to heal
pressure ulcer/injury, prevent infection and the development of additional pressure ulcers/injuries. The same
policy documents the facility will monitor interventions and revise as appropriate.

drainage and documents she manually removed a moderate amount of dead fat tissue from R2's pressure
ulcer and that R2 appears to be declining. V4 documents new orders to apply Santyl once daily for 16 days
to the wound bed; Sodium hypochlorite solution (Dakin's) apply to the wound bed twice daily for 30 days.
Soak gauze dressing with .0125% Dakin's solution, wring out the gauze and apply to the wound bed only,

silver once daily to the wound bed.
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 2/25/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
is now a Stage 4 pressure ulcer measuring 3.7 cm x 3.2 cm x 2.5 cm. This same evaluation documents to
discontinue the order for Santyl daily to the coccyx and start a new order for Sodium hypochlorite solution
(Dakin's) apply to the wound bed twice daily for 30 days. Soak gauze dressing with .0125% Dakin's
solution, wring out the gauze and apply to the wound bed only, twice daily. This evaluation further
documents a new order for Tetracycline 500 milligrams twice a day, for 14 days for treatment of cellulitis to
the coccyx wound.
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 3/5/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
measurements were 3.4 cm x 4.2 cm x 1.5 cm with 6 cm of tunneling in the wound bed. The same
evaluation further documents R2's coccyx wound is odorous, with heavy drainage and the wound tunneling
has worsened with grayish/black drainage. V4 documents to continue with the same wound treatment order
and oral antibiotics. This same evaluation further documents V4 manually removed black, dead tissue from
the wound bed with a surgical blade.
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 3/12/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
measurements were 2.9 cm x 3 cm x 1.5 cm with 4 cm of tunneling. V4 further documents a moderate
amount of odorous drainage from wound bed. The same evaluation documents V4 manually removed dead
tissue from the wound bed using a blade during assessment. V4 documents to continue the same
treatment order to R2's coccyx pressure ulcer.
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 3/19/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
measurements were 4.5 cm x 4.5 cm x 1.5 cm with 5.5 cm of tunneling. This same assessment documents
R2's wound has heavy, grey, foul-smelling drainage coming from the wound with increased black, dead
tissue to the wound bed which was manually removed with a blade. V4 documents to continue with the
same treatment to the pressure ulcer and start Ciprofloxacin 500 milligrams by mouth, for 14 days for
wound infection, and Flagyl 500 milligrams, crush and sprinkle into wound base, twice daily with dressing
changes.
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 3/26/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
measurements were 3 cm x 5 cm x 1 cm with 6.1 cm of tunneling. V4 documents R2's coccyx pressure
ulcer still has moderate amounts of black dead tissue covering the wound bed, heavy drainage, and the
wound tunneling is now opened at sacral area as well. V4 documents V4 manually removed dead skin
tissue using a blade. This same evaluation documents to continue with the same wound treatment started
on 2/19/25.
On 4/2/25 at 10:00 AM, R2 is lying supine in bed on a perimeter mattress with no low air loss mattress,
wearing a hospital gown.
On 4/2/25 at 12:13 PM, R2 is lying in her bed supine with a hospital gown on. R2 stated she often has pain
in her coccyx area and her feet. R2 stated she has a wound on her buttocks but was not sure

how it started.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
On 4/2/25 at 1:15 PM, R2 has two separate stage four pressure ulcers on coccyx that are merging into one
pressure ulcer. The original coccyx pressure ulcer is open and covered in yellow/gray tissue over the wound
bed. The second pressure ulcer is on the left upper buttocks and is open with a red wound bed. Between
the two wounds is a small layer of skin. The wound tunnels into R2's coccyx. V4 measured the tunneling to
be 6 cm. There was a large amount of yellow and pink drainage on the adhesive bandage that was
removed from R2's wound.
Residents Affected - Few
On 4/2/25 at 1:05 PM, V4 stated R2 is supposed to be on a low air loss mattress to help with pressure
distribution for wound healing. V4 stated R2 could probably benefit from having Negative Pressure Wound
Therapy due to the increased amount of drainage from the wound, but V4 does not have much knowledge
with using Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (wound vac).
R2's Wound Evaluation and Management Summary dated 4/2/25 documents R2's coccyx pressure ulcer
measurements were 4.5 cm x 8.3 cm x 2.5 cm with 6 cm of tunneling. V4 manually removed yellow colored
dead skin with a blade that was covering the wound bed and documents a new order to place a Negative
Pressure Wound Therapy on R2's coccyx due to increased amount of drainage to the wound site.
On 4/2/25 at 1:00 PM, V3 Wound Nurse stated R2 is supposed to be on a low air loss mattress and the
mattress she is on currently is not correct. V3 further stated that R2 had moved rooms over the weekend
and the staff didn't move R2's low air loss mattress.
On 4/2/25 at 2:00 PM, V1 Administrator and V2 Director of Nursing stated they would expect after two
weeks of a wound not making progress that a new treatment would be ordered.
