The control group adopted conventional nursing of pressure ulcers once for every two hours, and the test group adopted Braden scale evaluation on the basis of control group. The incidence rate of pressure ulcers for two groups was compared. Results The control group had 2 cases with pressure ulcers and its incidence rate was 4.5%. The test group had no pressure ulcers patients, there was significant betweengroup difference(P0.05). Conclusion Effective prevention and nursing for elderly longterm bedridden patients can greatly reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers and improve patient′s quality of life.
