Rate My Professor Jessica Ingleman

Dr Ingleman leads a clinically focused research program aimed at advancing patient skin safety in acute and critical care, particularly by reducing pressure injuries through interdisciplinary collaboration and research embedded in health services. Her expertise encompasses pressure injury prevention, skin microclimate, body morphology in critical illness, mobilisation in intensive care, and delirium management. Notable projects include serving as an investigator on the NHMRC Partnership Project DEFENCE study (2023-2027) to eliminate harm from devices in critical illness, the Stryker Investigator-led grant Transforming Care: Evaluating the Implementation and Impact of a New Pressure Injury Care Plan (2024-2026), and co-investigator on the NHMRC MRFF Applying needs-based workforce planning in primary care (2024-2027). She has authored or co-authored key publications such as 'The next step in ICU pressure injury care: 222-nm ultraviolet-C to reduce microbial burden and support healing in pressure injuries' (2026, Intensive and Critical Care Nursing), 'Mobilisation OverViEw in a Quaternary intensive care unit: A cross-sectional descriptive survey' (2026, Australian Critical Care), 'Exploring body morphology, sacral skin microclimate and pressure injury development and risk among patients admitted to an intensive care unit: a prospective, observational study' (2024, Intensive and Critical Care Nursing), 'A randomised controlled phase II trial to examine the feasibility of using hyper-oxygenated fatty acids (HOFA) to prevent facial pressure injuries from medical devices among adults admitted to intensive care - a research protocol' (2024, International Wound Journal), and 'Preventing pressure injuries in intensive care unit patients compared to non-intensive care unit patients: Is it any different?' (2024, Intensive and Critical Care Nursing). In 2023, she received the Best Nursing Scholarship Paper award at the ANZICS/ACCCN Annual Scientific Meeting for her doctoral work, which explored body morphology, skin microcirculation, and microclimate in relation to pressure injuries.
