Calibration power of the Braden scale in predicting pressure ulcer development
Journal of Wound Care, 2016Objective:Calibration is the degree of correspondence between the estimated probability produced by a model and the actual observed probability. The aim of this study was to investigate the calibration power of the Braden scale in predicting pressure ulcer development (PU).Method:A retrospective analysis was performed among consecutive patients in 2013.

Predicting Pressure Injury Risk in Pediatric Patients: The Braden QD Scale
The Journal of Pediatrics, 2018To describe the development and initial testing of the Braden QD Scale to predict both immobility-related and medical device-related pressure injury risk in pediatric patients.This was a multicenter, prospective cohort study enrolling hospitalized patients, preterm to 21 years of age, on bedrest for at least 24 hours with a medical device in place ...

Predictive Validity of the Braden Scale Among Black and White Subjects
Nursing Research, 2002The Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk (Braden Scale) has been tested for predictive validity, but the cut-off scores for Blacks has not been compared to White populations.The purpose of this brief report is to determine if the Braden Scale predicts pressure ulcer risk similarly for Blacks and Whites.A multisite study of the predictive ...

Interpreting interrater reliability coefficients of the Braden scale: A discussion paper
International Journal of Nursing Studies, 2008There are many studies investigating psychometric properties of the Braden scale, a scale that predicts the risk for pressure ulcers. The main focus of these studies is validity as opposed to reliability. In order to estimate the degree of interrater reliability a literature review revealed that numerous statistical approaches and coefficients were ...

A Clinical Trial of the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk
Nursing Clinics of North America, 1987The purpose of this article was to describe the protocol by which predictive instruments can be tested for validity and to evaluate the usefulness of an instrument for predicting pressure sore risk in an AICU. The Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk was described.

Braden Scale: Validity in community-based older adults receiving home health care
Applied Nursing Research, 2001The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of the Braden Scale and optimal frequency of risk reassessment in older adults receiving home health care. Data were collected from the records of 1,711 nonhospice patients aged 60 years or older who did not have pressure ulcers at the beginning of home health care.

An interrater reliability study of the Braden scale in two nursing homes
International Journal of Nursing Studies, 2008Adequate risk assessment is essential in pressure ulcer prevention. Assessment scales were designed to support practitioners in identifying persons at pressure ulcer risk. The Braden scale is one of the most extensively studied risk assessment instruments, although the majority of studies focused on validity rather than reliability.The first aim was to
