This study was conducted to evaluate the time-sensitive progression trajectory of pressure injury stages based on real-world electronic health record (EHR) datasets. Clinical databases within the Mass General Brigham (MGB) Healthcare system was used as data source. Both pressure injury anatomical locations and staging values were obtained through EHR flowsheets. Our results suggested that early intervention, especially for patients with stage 1 can be a very important strategy to prevent severe pressure injury.
