Knowledge Levels and Attitudes of Intensive Care Nurses Regarding Medical Device-Related Pressure Injuries.
Article in International wound journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study aims to determine the knowledge levels and attitudes of intensive care nurses regarding Medical Device-Related Pressure Injuries (MDRPI). This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 229 nurses working in intensive care units in Türkiye who were reached using the snowball sampling method. The data were collected using the 'Nurse Information Form', the 'MDRPI Knowledge Questionnaire', and the 'Attitude Questionnaire Regarding MDRPI'. The intensive care nurse's total mean MDRPI Knowledge score was 14.75 ± 3.08, while the total mean Attitude Questionnaire score was 47.23 ± 5.50. In addition, significant positive correlations were observed between the MDRPI Knowledge and Attitude (r = 0.520, p < 0.001). Nurses who had previously provided care to patients who developed MDRPIs were found to have higher total scores on both the Knowledge and the Attitude Questionnaire (p < 0.05). In this study, intensive care nurses generally have positive attitudes toward MDRPIs; however, their knowledge is moderate and requires improvement. Moreover, indicating that attitudes became more positive as knowledge levels increased. The knowledge levels of intensive care nurses should be continuously enhanced through in-service training programs aligned with current evidence-based practices. In addition, educational programs should also focus on improving attitudes toward MDRPI prevention.
