dc.description.abstractPURPOSE: The aim of this study was to compare effects of 2 adhesive products, a nonwoven porous adhesive bandage (NPAB) and transparent film adhesive bandage (TFAB), on skin integrity for fixation of hip and knee surgical dressings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective, randomized study was conducted on 300 patients who underwent hip and knee surgery (arthroplasty, fixation of fractures, tumor operations, etc). Participants were randomized into 2 equal groups according to the applied surgical dressing fixation product (NPAB or TFAB). Skin changes (edema, erythema, blister, peeling of blister, mechanical peeling, and maceration), drying of incision, serous discharge, and early infection symptoms were evaluated. RESULTS: The skin integrity was found to be impaired in 4.0% (n = 6) of the 150 NPAB patients and in 10.7% (n = 16) of the 150 TFAB patients (P =.02). Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of impaired skin integrity increased 2.5-fold when TFAB was applied (P =.03). CONCLUSION: The NPAB was associated with a reduced likelihood of impaired skin integrity following hip and knee surgery. © 2015 by the Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society.en_US
