It is often difficult for nurses to decide which support surface should be used to best meet a patient's need for a pressure-reducing device because of the multiplicity of products available. One of the variables studied was found not to statistically influence the effectiveness of the various pressure-relieving devices. Body build is not a consideration when determining which support surface is effective in a healthy population of subjects. The two air-flotation low air-loss beds would be defined as effective pressure-relieving devices. The interface pressure readings vary from individual to individual on various bony prominences. The population studied was that of healthy volunteers. Healthy subjects have an increased fat pad in their sacral area compared with the critically ill patient. The heel had the highest interface pressure of the five that were studied. This is a bony prominence that requires additional attention if skin integrity is to be maintained.</p>","PeriodicalId":77553,"journal":{"name":"Journal of enterostomal therapy","volume":"17 4","pages":"150-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13528306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
