Evaluation of electronic pressure injury alarm prototype based on user acceptance testing at hospital acquired pressure injury

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop and test the prototype is called the electronic Pressure Injury Alarm. This study was a Software Development Life Cycle, using User Acceptance Testing. Data was collected using a questionnaire instrument on 10 nurses as research respondents. The result was the prototype to which 89.4% of respondents expressed satisfaction. Some of the weaknesses obtained included instability of alarms and inadequate internet access. Electronic Pressure Injury Alarm is a prototype that is used as an early detection tool in implementing the prevention of pressure injuries in hospitals. This study will contribute to improved quality in the provision of nursing care to patients, provision of an overview of the positive contribution of technological developments to improve the quality of care and nursing care.
