INTRODUCTION: Hospitalized cancer patients experience limitations in their daily activities resulting from the severity of their condition. Such changes alter patients' sensory perception and hinder their mobility, thus predisposing them to the development of PI. OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to analyze the prevalence of PI and associated factors in hospitalized cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This observational, epidemiological, cross-sectional, descriptive study was carried out in the inpatient and ICU settings of an oncological hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. RESULTS: A total of 341 patients who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study were interviewed and assessed. Data obtained in the interviews were analyzed for logistic regression analysis. Pressure injury prevalence was 10% (34 patients). The use of disposable diapers was significantly associated with the development of PI, with a 6.077 increased chance of PI in such patients in the ICU setting. In this epidemiologic study of 341 hospitalized cancer patients, the prevalence of PI was 10%. The use of disposable diapers was the only factor associated with the presence of PI after logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSION: Knowing the risk factors of this specific population was essential to implement actions and optimize indications of disposable diaper use. There is an absence of epidemiologic records due to limited publications available on the subject; creating a program to prevent PI development within the inpatient, assisted population.
