- Abstract
[Objectives] The paper was to analyze the total prevalence of postoperative pressure ulcers in patients and to reveal the epidemic law. [Methods] By searching English databases such as PubMed, Google Academics, Scopus, Science Direct and Web of Science (WOS), a total of 2018 English articles on pressure ulcers published from January 2015 to December 2020 were selected. According to the inclusion criteria, 19 high-quality literatures were selected for the study, and the extended function of meta-analysis software of Review Manager 5.1 diagnostic test was used for data statistics and meta analysis of the results. [Results] There were 19 literatures with a total of 9 400 patients included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that the total prevalence estimate of postoperative pressure ulcers was 20. 00% (Cl 95%; 15.3 -24.1). The total prevalence estimate of postoperative pressure ulcers in males was 10.1% (Cl 95%; 7. 2 - 13. 02), and that in females was 12. 8% (Cl 95%; 8. 1 - 17. 3). The total prevalence estimates of stage I to IV postoperative pressure ulcers were 17. 02% (Cl 95%: 11.06 - 22.09), 6.7% (Cl 95%: 3.76 - 9.69), 0. 9% (Cl 95%: 0.21 -1.26) and 0.4% (Cl 95%: - 0. 05 - 0.8), respectively. [Conclusions] The prevalence of postoperative pressure ulcers is generally high. The prevalence of postoperative pressure ulcers in females is higher than that in males, and the prevalence of stage I pressure ulcers is higher than that of other stages, which is related to age, gender and other related risk factors.
