Abstract

Pressure injuries (previously called pressure ulcers) are a common finding among patients in acute, long-term, or home settings. Numerous pathophysiologic and risk mechanisms factor into the development of pressure injuries. The timely recognition of these injuries is imperative. Many treatments exist for pressure injuries but the focus of patient management should be on preventing injury-related complications.

摘要

压力性损伤（以前称为压疮）在急性、长期或家庭护理环境中的患者中很常见。压力性损伤的发生涉及众多病理生理和风险机制因素。及时识别这些损伤至关重要。压力性损伤有多种治疗方法，但患者管理的重点应是预防与损伤相关的并发症。
