Abstract:
A survey of 999 patients within the Borders Health Board area showed that 9.4 per cent had at least one pressure sore. J.C. Barbenel, M.M. Jordan and S.M. Nicol of the bioengineering unit, University of Strathclyde, describe how they assessed the extent and distribution of the condition, estimated to cost the NHS pound 150m a year.
