The 2026 Pressure Injury International Clinical Practice Guideline provides updated evidence and recommendations. The challenge for nursing professionals and clinical leaders is deciding what those recommendations mean for patients, teams, and clinical workflows.
Join three pressure injury experts on September 29, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET for From Guideline to Bedside: Making Pressure Injury Prevention Actionable.
This live webinar will help you:
- Interpret the evidence behind the recommendations
- Identify the changes most relevant to clinical practice
- Plan how to implement those changes at the bedside and across your organization
Interpret the evidence behind the recommendations
The panel will explain how to assess certainty of evidence and best practice statements. They will also discuss how clinicians should act when the evidence has limitations, but patient risk remains and decisions still need to be made.
Focus on the changes that could affect practice
The discussion will examine several areas addressed in the updated guideline, including:
- Positioning
- Positioning measurement
- Support surfaces
- Advanced technologies for pressure injury prevention
The panel will consider which changes may have the greatest implications for bedside care and clinical leadership.
Turn the guidance into practice
Effective implementation requires more than updating a protocol. Organizations must determine:
- Where protocols should provide clear direction
- Where clinical judgment remains essential
- How patient needs, resources, and care settings should shape implementation
- Whether education, documentation, workflows, or equipment need to change
- Who owns implementation and accountability
- How to prioritize recommendations when resources are constrained
The panel will also explore how electronic clinical quality measures, or eCQMs, and standardized reporting could reveal gaps in pressure injury prevention data and documentation.
Leave with a clear next step
The session will conclude with audience questions and a practical challenge for the panel:
What is one action nursing leaders should take in the next 90 days?
