(Multiple answers possible) 15 27 10 n - numbers Acceptability and Feasibility among nurses Of the 55 nurses, 15 to 26 indicated in the questionnaire that they had not used DRAAI yet, with this number varying per question (see Table 2). Excluding the nurses that indicated they had not used DRAAI yet, the majority of the nurses agreed that DRAAI helps to assess the risk of developing a PU (88%; 35/40) and aids in PU prevention (92%; 35/38). Furthermore, most agreed that DRAAI is easy to consult (91%; 29/32). The majority of nurses preferred to consult DRAAI during day shifts, though five reported using it during evening shifts, and three during night shifts. Some nurses also noted discrepancies in PU risk estimation: 29% (16/55) felt the risk estimated by DRAAI was higher than their own assessment, while another 29% (16/55) felt it was lower. Notably, five nurses agreed with both statements.
