Summary:
Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury (MDRPI) is a localized skin and/or subcutaneous tissue injury that occurs due to the pressure exerted by devices used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, taking the form of the medical device used. Medical device-related pressure injuries are an important adverse event with a high incidence and prevalence both in our country and in the world, accounting for more than 30% of hospital-related injuries. Medical device-related pressure injury significantly affects the quality of life of patients, but also negatively affects the cost of care for both the patient and providers. Although the most important task in preventing medical device-related pressure injuries falls on nurses, it is quite noticeable that nurses' knowledge levels of MDRPI are low in the studies conducted. MDRPI is an important issue that is ignored in nursing education and work areas in our country. In order to prevent pressure injuries associated with medical devices, it is necessary to invest more in early detection of MDRPI and improving the quality of care, studies including MDRPI risk assessment and reporting strategies are needed. In the project to be carried out in this context, it is aimed to evaluate the impact of web-based training applied to nurses to prevent MDRPI.

Primary Outcome Measures: The Incidence of Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury, Pre-test application will be made with the "Nurse Identifying Characteristics Form" and the "MDRPI Knowledge Scale" and the "MDRPI Attitude Scale" to determine the level of knowledge and attitude of nurses related to medical device pressure injury before web-based training., Three months before the web-based training was conducted|Nurse's Knowledge and Attitude About Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury, The incidence of patients hospitalized in intensive care will be determined first in the study. For this purpose, patients will be observed at the same time every day during their stay in intensive care. The researcher will fill out the "Patient Information Form" and the "MDRPI Daily Follow-up Form" for each patient who meets the inclusion criteria during hospitalization. If from a medical device that comes into contact with the patient's body area (intubation tube, nasogastric catheter, airway, pulsioximeter, varicose veins sock, etc.) if the resulting injury develops, the "MDRPI Registration Form" will be used and patient monitoring will be continued for wound monitoring and other injuries., within three months prior to the implementation of web-based training
Secondary Outcome Measures: Decrease in the Incidence of Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury, In order to determine the effectiveness of the web-based training applied to nurses, the MDRPI incidence of the patients will be determined after the training and compared with the first trimester incidence. For this purpose, patients will be observed at the same time every day during their stay in intensive care. The researcher will fill out the "Patient Information Form" and the "MDRPI Daily Follow-up Form" for each patient who meets the inclusion criteria during hospitalization. If from a medical device that comes into contact with the patient's body area (intubation tube, nasogastric catheter, airway, pulsioximeter, varicose veins sock, etc.) if the resulting injury develops, the "MDRPI Registration Form" will be used and patient monitoring will be continued for wound monitoring and other injuries., The first three months after the web-based training application
Other Outcome Measures: Nurse's Knowledge and Attitude About Medical Device-Related Pressure Injury, In the second and thirteenth weeks after the web-based training, nurses will be applied with the "Nurse Identification Characteristics Form" and the "MDRPI Knowledge Scale" and the "MDRPI Attitude Scale" to determine the level of knowledge and attitude of medical device-related pressure injury., In the second and thirteenth weeks after the web-based training
