| Research Abstract |
To confirm the predictive validity of skin maceration as a risk indicator of incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD).We found IAD occurred in 22/35(62.9%) of incontinencepatientswith skin macerationwithin six weeks. Skin maceration accurately predicted development of IAD with a relative risk of 6.9(95% confidence interval: 1.05-45.59)and sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were 95.7%, 43.5%, 62.9%and 90.9%, respectively.We have validated skin maceration as a risk indicator of IAD.
