| Concept | Braden scale |
| Description | The Braden scale is a tool used to assess the risk of pressure ulcer development in adults and children over the age of five years. |
| Use | Use to assess risk of pressure ulcer development in an adult population or for children aged 5 and over, in both hospital and community settings. There are two commonly used variants - one intended for hospital use and the other for home use. They differ only in the description of the Moisture data element where the frequency of bedding change is described as "three times per 24 hours" for home use or "once per shift" for hospital use. As these two descriptions have the same essential meaning, this archetype has used the most generally applicable wording, based on the home use variant. While openEHR archetypes are all freely available under an open license, the specific content of this Braden Scale archetype is copyright protected. Any use of this archetype within implementations must be in compliance with the terms established by the copyright owners. Copyright statement: Barbara Braden and Nancy Bergstrom, 1988 All rights reserved Copyright information: http://bradenscale.com/copyright.htm. |
| Misuse | Not to be used unless the terms of copyright have been observed -see http://bradenscale.com/copyright.htm for details. The Braden Scale should not be used for children between 21 days and 5 years. Use an archetype specifically designed for the Paediatric Braden Scale. The Braden Scale should not be used for children aged less than 21 days. Use an archetype specifically designed for the Neonatal Braden Scale. |
| Purpose | To record information about factors used to assess the risk of pressure ulcer development, and the total Braden Scale score. |
