Medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs), a subclass of pressure injuries, represent a significant health concern impacting patient safety on a global scale. Efforts to prevent MDRPIs have gained importance due to their occurrence across all areas of care and their potential to negatively affect both patients and healthcare systems. In the prevention and treatment of MDRPIs, adherence to and implementation of current best practices is essential for promoting clinical quality and ensuring patient safety. Additionally, there is a need for evidence-based development of these best practices to improve the quality of care provided. This article presents the latest best practice recommendations based on research findings, consensus reports, and practice guidelines for the prevention and management of MDRPIs.
