Abstract

Repositioning is regarded as an important intervention to prevent the development of pressure injuries in patients who are immobile. However, there is uncertainty as to the optimal regimen in terms of frequency and method of repositioning. This commentary summarises and critically appraises a Cochrane systematic review that assessed the clinical and costeffectiveness of different repositioning regimens on the prevention of pressure injuries in adults in any setting.
