Descriptive statistics were used to describe nurses' practices.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n When assessing risk, 78% (n = 197\/252) reported using a risk assessment scale: the 2 most common scales were the Neonatal Skin Risk Assessment Scale and the Braden Q Scale. Sixty-nine percent (n = 174\/252) reported using a rolled blanket or small soft object as pressure redistribution surfaces. In addition, 15% (n = 39) reported the use of different types of positioners such as a fluidized positioner as pressure redistribution surfaces; however, these are marketed as a positioning devices. It appears that these interventions were considered redistribution surfaces by the nurses. For moisture management, petrolatum-based products (6.7%; n = 17\/252) and ostomy powders (6%; n = 16\/252) were most frequently used.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n Practices for PI prevention are different for neonatal patients due to their gestational age, size, and level of illness. Findings from this study create a beginning knowledge of and an opportunity for further research to determine how these practices affect outcomes such as PI incidence and prevalence.<\/jats:p>\n
