Nurses' Clinical Decision-Making About Pressure Injury Prevention in Hospital Settings: A Scoping Review.
Article in Journal of advanced nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimTo systematically explore research on nurses' clinical decision-making and factors influencing pressure injury prevention in hospitalised patients.
designScoping review. DATA SOURCES: Medline full text, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature Plus with full text, and Scopus.
methodsArksey and O'Malley's five-step framework guided this scoping review. Studies published prior to 11 July 2024 were included.
resultsThirty-eight studies were included. The factors influencing nurses' decision-making in pressure injury prevention included: 'support systems', 'knowledge and attitudes', 'barriers to implementing prevention practices' and 'risk assessment tools and clinical judgement'. Limited research was conducted on nurses' clinical decision-making about implementation of pressure injury prevention interventions.
conclusionMore research on nurses' clinical decision-making related to pressure injury prevention is needed to enhance education, support effective care and reduce the incidence of pressure injuries. IMPACT: Nurses recognise the importance of preventing pressure injuries, however implementation of pressure injury prevention interventions are inconsistent, and pressure injuries remain common in hospitals. Limited research exists on the processes nurses use to make clinical decisions about pressure injury prevention for hospitalised adults at risk of pressure injury. REPORTING
methodThis scoping review adhered to the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution.
