Abstract:
The prevention of pressure damage is a fundamental aspect of nursing care. Despite this and the amount of literature available, the prevalence and incidence of pressure sores do not appear to be diminishing. This review focuses on elements of care that are within the power of nurses to attain and suggests strategies for promoting quality care by simple, economic and effective means.
