Abstract:
The occurrence of bedsores in Ghanaian hospitals, elderly homes or care homes is especially high among patients or people who are incapacitated and cannot move or turn on their own, and who happen to remain in a particular posture for a very long time. Patients in coma, those operated on and for that matter in critical state, and patients confined to wheelchairs are primary examples. Constant pressure on some parts of the body leads to the occurrence of pressure sores or ulcers. This paper seeks to implement a Bedsore Easing System (BeSoSys) that integrate several embedded hardware components,

ABSTRACT Background Bedsores are quite frequent in bedridden cases. Caregivers have an important role in the management of such cases. Objectives To assess the knowledge, beliefs and practices of caregivers regarding bedsore care practices and management. Materials and methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in Chandigarh from September to November 2011. Caregivers were interviewed about the knowledge, attitude and practice regarding care of bedridden patients and their problems like bedsores.

Abstract:
Bedsores are still among the risks that most seriously impair the health of patients who need help and nursing care. Taking into account the existing knowledge about the possibilities of bedsore prevention, we can say that the goal of nursing care is to limit the development of bedsores as much as possible. At the same time, it is of great importance to ensure the continuity of preventive measures by specialized nursing staff. This includes, among other things, systematic risk assessment, training of patients and their relatives, encouraging them to exercise as much as possible, and, most impo

Abstract:
The best recognized and also the most widespread example of tissue necrosis is bedsore. A bedsore is localized damage to the skin and other underlying tissue, usually over a bony prominence, as a result of prolonged, unrelieved pressure. The cause of bedsore is shearing forces; friction, moisture, and constant pressure contribute to the development of bedsore. Hospital research shows that bedsores develop from 3% to 4.5% of patients during prolonged hospitalization and Sores develop from 25% to 85% of patients with spinal cord injury.

Abstract:
Background. It has been established that senile xerosis or “fragility” of the skin occurs in 75 % of the population over 65 years of age, when pathological skin dryness leads to peeling, the formation of microcracks, the appearance of senile itching, sleep disorders, the development of pressure sores and, as a result, decreased physical activity. According to the British authors, bedsores are formed in 15–20 % of patients in medical and preventive care facilities. Adequate prevention of pressure sores prevents their development in patients at risk in more than 80 % of cases, which allows not o

Abstract:
Topicality. Bedsores are an urgent problem of modern medicine both at the outpatient and inpatient stage. For the treatment of infected bedsores it is advisable to use drugs that have a complex effect focused on various parts of the pathological process. For the treatment of chronic wounds and bedsores together with the inhibition of the growth of microorganisms the drug must provide the optimal conditions for the growth of granulation, have a reparative and anti-inflammatory effect. Aim. To experimentally substantiate the composition of the gel base with hyaluronic acid and decamethoxine. Mat

Abstract:
Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers, are wounds caused by the applied external force (pressure) on body segments, thereby preventing blood supply from delivering the required elements to the skin tissue. Missing elements hinder the skin’s ability to maintain its health. It poses a significant threat to patients that have limited mobility. A new patented mattress design and alternative suggested designs aimed to reduce pressure are investigated in this paper for their performance in decreasing pressure. A simulation using Ansys finite element analysis (FEA) is carried out for comparison. Th

Abstract:
Back pain is a commonly known problem for drivers and passengers traveling in long route vehicles, especially buses and trucks. The problem becomes more severe for people suffering from bedsores. The current embodiment is a step toward addressing this problem. This method helps to regulate blood flow and provide comfort to the drivers and bedsore patients. Pneumatic cylinder and 24 semi-circular designed aluminum buds are used in the assembly that moves up and down along with the comforter foam and sheet to serve the purpose. This design is an active way of providing comfort and has significan

Abstract:
Pressure ulcer or bedsore is a form of skin infection that commonly occurs with patients admitted to the hospital for an extended period of time, which might lead to severe complications in the absence of medical attention, resulting in infection either by drug-sensitive or drug-resistant bacteria. Halicin, a newly discovered drug effective against several bacterial strains, including multidrug-resistant bacteria, was investigated to reduce bacterial infection burden. This study aims to formulate halicin into electrospun fibers to be applied in bedsores as antibacterial dressing to assess its
