Study Summary
The proposed clinical trial is aimed at demonstrating the important role wheelchairs play in preventing pressure ulcers (bed sores). Although most pressure ulcers can be prevented, they are common in nursing home settings because their causes are difficult to identify. This clinical trial will guide practitioners toward improving preventive care practices by demonstrating how to effectively apply wheelchair and seat cushion technology.
Primary Outcome
Skin assessments for incidence of sitting-induced pressure ulcers will occur once per week until the occurrence of a pressure ulcer or 182 days
Interventions
- DEVICE Lightweight wheelchair
- DEVICE Skin Protection Cushion
