    The intensive care area has special relevance within hospital facilities, as it accommodates patients who are in critical condition and require constant nursing care. This scenario is exacerbated in the case of older adults, due to their vulnerability, even more so if they must remain in this area for long periods of time, since the skin is much more sensitive to the appearance of lesions that vary in severity. In this context, insufficient knowledge and practice on the prevention of pressure ulcers has been detected, a reality that can generate complications in the health of these patients and even lead to their death. OBJECTIVE: to determine the relationship between knowledge and nursing practice on the prevention of pressure ulcers in older adults admitted to the intensive care of a hospital in Essalud, 2022. MATERIALS AND METHODS: It will be quantitative, basic, non-experimental design and transversal, with descriptive - correlational scope. 80 nurses will participate. The instruments will be a questionnaire and a checklist that will measure the variables knowledge and practice on pressure ulcer prevention.
