Pressure sores are a major concern in hospitals and long-term care settings, especially among bedridden patients who face risks due to immobility, poor skin condition, and inadequate nutrition. These sores cause pain, complications, longer hospitals stay, and increased healthcare costs. Globally, their prevalence ranges from 4% to 23%, with higher rates in elderly and critically ill patients. Since pressure sores often reflect poor-quality care and are largely preventable, structured approaches like the ASSKING bundle are essential. The ASSKING bundle provides an evidence-based checklist that supports early assessment and consistent nursing care. This study aims to assess how effective the ASSKING bundle is in preventing pressure sores in bedridden patients and to encourage its wider use in nursing practice.

Materials and Methods: Research design used for the study was quasi-experimental with one group pre-test post-test design. The investigator has adopted non-probability convenient sampling technique to select 30 samples of bedridden patients in ICUs in selected hospital of Ahmedabad. The Braden scale was used to assess the patient after and before providing ASSKING bundle.
