Pressure Ulcer Prevention & Management in Critically Ill Patients

Date: 02 Dec 2020
Location: Virtual Conference
Organiser: Healthcare Conferences UK

Description:
Patients being cared for in intensive care units are particularly at risk of pressure ulcers because they often lack the ability to change position independently. During the Covid-19 Pandemic, critically ill patients have been seen to benefit from lying in the prone position (face down) however this can also put them at risk of pressure damage.
