How Pressure Ulcers are Formed and How to Treat Them

Are pressure-relieving mattresses necessary for a patient?

Yes. Patients that are bed-ridden require additional care as they can develop serious sores known as pressure ulcers. Here is a breakdown on what these ulcers are and how you can prevent them using a pressure-relieving mattress, like the Hill Rom NP100 Mattress.

A pressure sore is essentially damage to the skin and the underlying tissue under it. Sitting down or lying for long periods of time will remove the stream of blood to that region, blocking oxygen and crucial supplements from keeping the tissue healthy. At the point when the tissue becomes famished from these supplements for an extended period of time, they will begin to die, causing pressure sores to form.

Pressure sores will likewise be alluded to as pressure ulcers or “decubitus” ulcers. Harm from a pressure sore will go from slight staining of the skin to open injuries that affect deeper areas in the body. This can lead to infection and can lead to serious side effects.

What are the effects?

The affected skin region may feel hotter than the encompassing tissue. In lighter-skinned individuals, the staining may show up as dull purple or red. In darker-skinned individuals, the staining will seem darker than the encompassing tissue.

Is it serious?

A pressure ulcer isn’t just your average sore. It must not be disregarded as it can worsen with neglect. With appropriate treatment, and switching to a pressure relief mattress, such as the Hill Rom NP100 Mattress, these ulcers can recover over time.

A pressure sore is any redness or break in the skin brought about by a large amount of pressure forced onto the body for an extended period of time. The weight keeps blood from traveling to your skin, therefore the skin becomes distressed and eventually dies. Normally, the nerves will send messages of agony or sentiments of distress to your cerebrum to tell you that you have to change your position, yet harm to your spinal cord prevents these messages from reaching your brain, leaving you at the mercy of an ulcer.

You may need to learn better approaches when it comes to changing your position to prevent an excess amount of weight. Pressure wounds can occur for instance, when you sit or lie in one position too long. Shearing is additionally a type of weight damage. It happens when the skin moves one way and the bone underneath it moves another way. An example of this is when you constantly slouch while sitting down.

Another type of injury, an abrasion, can happen when an individual pulls his or herself across a surface as opposed to lifting. This is a case of friction causing harm. Likewise, little exposure to high pressure, for example, a bump or fall, may cause damage to the skin that doesn’t appear right away but is indeed underneath the cells.

How can I correct this?

By learning how to properly position yourself or your patient, you can achieve a sense of balance when it comes to weight distribution. In addition to this, purchasing a pressure-relieving mattress will also assist you in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. Don’t let this be an excuse to disregard proper positioning techniques. The mattress can’t do it on its own. There must be a mutual partnership between positioning and maximizing the mattress’s function.
