Abstract

The quasi-experimental research aimed to investigate the effects of clinical nursing practices in preventing and managing incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) in two phases. The sample included 39 patients at risk of IAD in both phases and 93 nurses, and 81 nursing assistants.Specific tools included personal information questionnaires, clinical practice assessment forms, patient satisfaction surveys, and staff opinion questionnaires. The content validity index was 1.00 for all tools. Statistical analysis involved t-tests and McNemar’s test.
Results indicated a significant reduction in IAD occurrences in phase 2, with higher patient satisfaction scores. Staff, especially nursing assistants, showed increased agreement with the use of clinical practices in phase 2. Overall, the study suggests that implementing these practices can enhance outcomes for both patients and healthcare providers.
