Article searches were conducted through electronic databases and websites, namely Pubmed, Proquest, ScienceDirect and Wiley. The results of the analysis of 9 research articles showed that, there were articles that reported the use of dressings was effective to prevent injury and provide a sense of comfort, also there were no injuries but caused discomfort, and there were those who reported more pressure injuries with the use of prophylactic dressings than those that did not use. In conclusion, preventive measures with prophylactic dressing on the use of N95 masks still require further research.
