This project is centered around the patient-centered intervention of preventing pressure ulcers within the pediatric population. The intervention is the usage of the Braden Q scale which has been adapted from its adult counterpart as a way of identifying the patients most at risk for developing these types of injuries. In the poster the background, importance, clinical implications, and barriers to implementation are all discussed
