Abstract

Despite ongoing efforts to improve the prediction, prevention, and treatment of pressure ulcers, clinicians continue to face an overwhelming array of confusing, and sometimes conflicting, information about the technologies used to lower pressure. The purpose of this article is to explain the fundamental differences among units of pressure measurement and those pressures (capillary closing, tissue interface, internal cushion, and hydrostatic) that are commonly described in research as well as sales literature. A clearer understanding of these parameters will help clinicians make informed evaluations of distinct technologies, set realistic expectations for different products, and achieve desired outcomes cost-effectively.

使用压力测量来评估不同的技术。
尽管不断努力改善压疮的预测、预防和治疗,临床医生仍然面临着大量令人困惑的,有时是相互矛盾的,关于减压技术的信息。本文的目的是解释压力测量单位和那些通常在研究和销售文献中描述的压力(毛细管闭合、组织界面、内部缓冲和流体静力)之间的根本区别。更清楚地了解这些参数将有助于临床医生对不同的技术做出明智的评估,为不同的产品设定现实的期望,并以经济有效的方式实现预期的结果。
