Skin tear prevalence in an Australian acute care hospital: A 10-year analysis

Sandra J. Miles et al.

Summary: The study aimed to analyze the prevalence and characteristics of skin tears in a tertiary acute care hospital in Queensland, Australia over a decade. The findings showed an overall downward trend in hospital-acquired skin tears, with a majority of patients aged 70 and above having multiple skin tears. Most tears were caused by falls or collisions, suggesting combined strategies for fall and skin tear prevention may be effective.
