We assessed risk factors for the recurrence of pressure ulcers based on the experience of a single surgeon at our medical centre. We retrospectively analysed patients admitted to our medical centre with stage III and IV pressure ulcers who underwent reconstructive surgery. The hospital database was searched for patients diagnosed with pressure ulcers who underwent reconstructive surgery. Patient characteristics analysed included age, sex, cause and location of defect, comorbidities, lesion size, wound reconstruction methods, operation time, debridement times, duration of hospital stay, and wound complications. Recurrence and mortality rates were retrospectively examined. One hundred and eighty\u2010nine patients were enrolled, and 166 patients with 176 pressure ulcers met our inclusion criteria. All 14 recurrences (7.95%) were followed for at least 1\u00a0year. Logistic regression analysis indicated that recurrence was associated with albumin levels (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.001) and wound size (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.043); however, no association was found for body mass index, bacterial profile, comorbidities, localisation, previous surgery, operation time, or time to admission for reconstruction. In conclusion, higher albumin levels were associated with lower recurrence rates in patients who underwent reconstructive surgery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/iwj.14112","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,9]],"date-time":"2023-02-09T02:55:01Z","timestamp":1675911301000},"page":"2511-2517","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Risk factors for recurrent pressure ulcers after reconstructive surgery: A retrospective study in a single medical centre"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2733-6394","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wang","family":"Lin\u2010Yin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic and Reconstruction Surgery, Department of Surgery Tri\u2010Service General Hospital, National Defense Medical Center  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liang","family":"Chia\u2010Ming","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Traumatology Surgery, Department of Surgery, Tri\u2010Service General Hospital National Defense Medical Center  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hong\u2010Ling","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Public Health National Defense Medical Center  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chen","family":"Chu\u2010Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic Surgery, Department of Surgery Armed Forces Taoyuan General Hospital  Taoyuan Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8440-2351","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yuan\u2010Sheng","family":"Tzeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic and Reconstruction Surgery, Department of Surgery Tri\u2010Service General Hospital, National Defense Medical Center  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129334-200107000-00015"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e3182046a02"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.sc.3101622"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/CCM.0b013e318298a849"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e3181d51227"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","unstructured":"Wound Rep Reg.VC 2018 by the wound healing society.2018;26:64\u201068."},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e3182442197"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000637-200206000-00012"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/iwj.12166"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SAP.0b013e31828587a8"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/wrr.12613"}],"container-title":["International Wound Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/iwj.14112","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/iwj.14112","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/iwj.14112","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,26]],"date-time":"2025-08-26T23:58:57Z","timestamp":1756252737000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/iwj.14112"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,8]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2023,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/iwj.14112"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/iwj.14112","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1742-4801","1742-481X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1742-4801","type":"print"},{"value":"1742-481X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,8]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2022-12-02","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2023-01-22","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2023-02-08","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
