Risks for Pressure UlcersRisks for Pressure Ulcers
• ImmobilityImmobility– Unable to move independentlyUnable to move independently
• Impaired PerceptionImpaired Perception [numbness, [numbness, paralysis]paralysis]– Unable to sense pain/pressureUnable to sense pain/pressure
• Altered LOCAltered LOC– Confused – perceive pressure/pain but Confused – perceive pressure/pain but
can’t communicate/ relieve pressure can’t communicate/ relieve pressure – Coma: no perception + immobilityComa: no perception + immobility
