Understanding Pressure Ulcers

Pressure ulcers, commonly known as bedsores or pressure sores, are localized injuries to the skin and underlying tissues caused by prolonged pressure. These injuries often occur in individuals who are bedridden, use wheelchairs or have limited mobility, typically forming over bony areas such as the heels, hips, tailbone, and elbows. Factors influencing the development of pressure ulcers include pressure intensity, duration, and the individual's overall health. Insufficient blood flow to affected areas can lead to tissue damage, resulting in pain, open wounds, and severe complications, including infections.

Preventive measures for pressure ulcers include regular repositioning, maintaining proper nutrition, using specialized support surfaces, and ensuring effective skincare. Early detection and appropriate management are crucial for preventing ulcer progression and promoting healing. Healthcare professionals offer tailored treatments, including wound care, infection control, and pressure redistribution strategies, to manage pressure ulcers effectively.
