Predictive Models for Medical Adhesive-Related Skin Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

To systematically evaluate existing prediction models for medical adhesive-related skin injury and assess their potential contribution to nurse-led risk assessment and preventive care planning.

A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted. Seven databases were searched from inception to 25 October 2025. Studies developing prediction models for medical adhesive-related skin injury in adults were assessed using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool. Random-effects meta-analyses were used to synthesize prevalence estimates, model discrimination and common predictors.
