Additionally, it sought to identify patient- and caregiver-related factors that may influence short-term mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 96 patients with advanced-stage PUs and their 96 primary caregivers were included in a study. The Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) was used to evaluate wound severity at baseline and at a 3-month follow-up. Caregiver burden and burnout were assessed using the Zarit Burden Interview and Maslach Burnout Inventory. Sociodemographic data were also collected. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine predictors of mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      At the end of the 3-month follow-up, 35 patients (36.5%) survived, showing statistically significant improvement in PUSH scores (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p\u2009&lt;\u2009.<\/jats:italic>\n                      05).
