概要	The Norton Scale is a pioneering risk assessment tool developed by Doreen Norton and colleagues in 1962 to identify hospitalized patients at risk of developing pressure sores. As one of the earliest standardized pressure ulcer risk assessment instruments, the Norton Scale predates and influenced many later tools including the widely used Braden Scale. It remains relevant in clinical practice, particularly in geriatric and long-term care settings.	The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BJWAT), originally developed as the Pressure Sore Status Tool, is a comprehensive instrument for objectively assessing pressure ulcer characteristics and monitoring healing progress. Created by Barbara M. Bates-Jensen, the tool evaluates 13 distinct wound dimensions including size, depth, tissue type, and exudate. It provides quantitative assessment of wound severity and is useful for tracking changes over time and evaluating treatment effectiveness.
