Analysis of pat ient classificat ion inst rum ent s available in t he lit erat ure shows t hat m any significant aspect s related to the assistance to patients with wounds are not approached, evidencing the im portance to elaborate criteria to assess these patients. This study proposes the developm ent of new of areas of care to com plem ent the Fugulin et al. instrum ent, validated by the Federal Nursing Council (COFEN). The construction of new areas to evaluate wounds was based on a bibliographic search on the operational m odels of the Patient Classification System (PCS), as well as on several inst rum ent s of wound classificat ion. New areas of care were est ablished, as follows: t issue im pairm ent , num ber of dressing changes and tim e taken to their preparation. Values were also redefined indicating the patient’s assistance category. The com plem entation of the Fugulin et al. instrum ent, proposed here, favors the application of this instrum ent in a m ore diversified group of patients since it adds a relevant assistance aspect, as the dressing issue.

Sim ilarly t o ot her kinds of inj uries, pressure ulcers can be classified and assessed in different ways. However, in 1989, the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel ( NPUAP) est ablished a st aging based on t issue im pairm ent , which t he Agency for Healt h Care Policy an d Resear ch ( AHCPR) r ecom m en d ed in 1 9 9 2 t o ident ify and classify t hese inj uries, which perm it t ed uniform inform at ion for universal use( 16).

The care area was defined as follows

Frequency of dressing changes
The m ain obj ect ive of a dressing is t o favor t h e scar r in g p r ocess. Th u s, t h e ch oice of t op ical therapy for wound treatm ent m ust be based on clinical wound charact erist ics and on t he scarring phase t he wound has reached( 17).
Likewise, t he periodicit y of dressing changes m ust be based on t he quant it y and charact erist ics of t he ex udat e pr esent in t he w ound bed and on t he t ype of dressing used for it s t reat m ent .
Som e dressings can be changed every t hree or five days. Others can rem ain on the wound bed for up t o seven days. However, sim ple dressings, which ar e p r ed o m i n an t i n a l ar g e m aj o r i t y o f h o sp i t al

3. Dressing perform ed 2 tim es per day by the nursing t eam ;
4. Dressing perform ed m ore than 3 tim es per day by t he nursing t eam .

The t im e used for wound dressing is closely r elat ed w it h t he inj ur y’s degr ee of im pair m ent , t he pr ofessional’s abilit y t o per for m t he t echnique and t he react ion or collaborat ion of t he pat ient subm it t ed t o t he procedure( 18).
The tim e intervals established in this care area w er e det er m ined em pir ically, based on ex per ien ce and on the tim e spent to apply the dressings.

1. No dressing.
2. Between 5 and 15 m inutes. 3. Between 15 and 30 m inutes. 4. More than 30 m inutes.
