Declarations

:

: This project complies with the ethical regulations mentioned in Colombian Resolution number 008430 of 1993. It is within the suggested guidelines in the Helsinki declaration of the World Medical Association, the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS), and the Belmont report. This project was approved by the ethics committee of the Fundación Cardioinfantil (Comité de Ética en Investigación Clínica CEIC 4001–2019 IRB00007736), in the investigation category with a minimum risk knowing that there is a chance of patients developing potential PUs exposed to basic care. In that case, patients who develop PUs receive conventional care without any additional costs that their healthcare provider covers. Directors of the Nursing Department, Physician Director of ICU, Nurses, and patients will be invited to participate and sign a consent form before the beginning of the study. All patients who receive a contraindication for mobilization will not be given posture changes. Each hospital must submit the study to its respective ethics. The name and results of each center will be made anonymous. The obtained data will be safely stored in the main center of the study (Fundación Cardioinfantil) and will not be allowed for any other uses except PENFUP-phase 2. The leader of each center will be allowed to participate as co-author of the writing of scientific articles and oral presentations. Each hospital will receive a bonus income that will cover the recruiters’ activities during the three months of the study’s duration. The information in the database will be archived for at least 15 years once the study has ended.
