N2 - Background: The overall survival (OS) of hospitalized cancer patients with pressure injury (PI) has not been studied in a large cohort. Objective: To assess risk factors associated with OS of hospitalized cancer patients with PI. Methods: After IRB approval, charts of 445 hospitalized cancer patients with PI were reviewed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the OS time and log-rank test was used to assess the association between OS and other variables. Results: Stage 1, 2, 3, 4, deep tissue injury, unstageable, and unknown stage were 79 (17.8%), 91 (20.4%), 24 (5.4%), 3 (0.7%), 144 (32.4%), 36 (8.1%), and 68 (15.3%), respectively. The OS rate is 55.3% at one month. OS is significantly associated with Braden Scale (BS) Score. The OS time is significantly shorter in patients with advanced disease. Conclusion: Cancer patients with PI have limited OS, especially those with ≤14 BS and advanced diseases.
