What would be the best first step you should take in response to the patient's complaint? A Assess the patient's skin and note any redness or other signs of skin breakdown
- Repositioning Patients to Prevent Pressure Injuries - Shield HealthCare
First, when you reposition the patient, make sure that pressure is actually relieved or redistributed Second, avoid positioning the individual on bony prominences with existing non-blanchable skin, which is an early sign of skin breakdown Third, lift—don’t drag—the patient while repositioning
- Heel Pressure Ulcer Prevention | Risk Factors | Wound Care
The posterior heel is only covered by a thin layer of skin and fat, and that makes breakdown a very real risk When patients lie supine, all of the pressure of their lower legs and feet rest on the heels, which have relatively poor skin perfusion and a paucity of muscle tissue to absorb stress

- Modeling the Effects of Moisture-Related Skin-Support Friction on the . . .
Herein, we investigated the mechanical interactions between the skin and a typical hospital mattress, depending on moisture-related changes in COF and skin stiffness, in the process of repositioning a bed-bound patient
- (PDF) Patient repositioning and pressure ulcer risk—Monitoring . . .
To determine if this holds true for high-risk patients, the effectiveness of routine repositioning in relieving at-risk tissue of the peri-sacral area was assessed using interface pressure
- Patient repositioning and pressure ulcers - Nursing Guys
To determine whether this is the case for at-risk patients, this study examined the effect of routine repositioning over an extended time period on the interface pressures of the perisacral skin area of bedrid- den patients at risk for pressure ulcer formation using interface pressure mapping
- Frontiers | Modeling the Effects of Moisture-Related Skin-Support . . .
We designed a finite element model to analyze skin stresses under a weight-bearing bony prominence while this region of interest slides frictionally over the support surface, as occurs during repositioning
