Abstract

Objective: This systematic review aimed to examine postgraduate theses conducted in the field of nursing in Turkiye related to medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs), with the objective of identifying trends, research themes, and the current level of knowledge in this area. Methods: As of June 2025, a total of 16.460 nursing theses registered in the Council of Higher Education National Thesis Centre database were screened. Using keywords such as “medical device,” “pressure ulcer,” “pressure injury,” “device-related pressure injury,” and “endotracheal tube,” 162 theses were initially identified, of which 16 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. Results: The reviewed theses were categorised under four main themes: (1) prevalence, risk factors, and clinical characteristics of medical device-related pressure injuries; (2) effects of educational interventions targeted at nurses; (3) relationships between knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and learning motivation; and (4) development of measurement instruments. Conclusion: This systematic review reveals an increasing academic interest in MDRPIs within the field of nursing in Turkiye recently. It emphasises the need to promote both academic and practice-oriented research on MDRPIs, the use of standardised measurement tools, and the widespread implementation of comprehensive educational programmes.
