Abstract:
(text automatically translated from Italian) For ***ulcera or lesion from decubitus a ***tissutale lesion to ***necrotica evolution agrees that interests the ***cute, ***derma and the subcutaneous layers, until catching up, in the more serious cases, the muscle, the cartilage and the bone. The phenomenon is caused from one extended and/or excessive pressure exercised between support plan and bony, such surface to provoke one mechanical stress on woven and an alteration of local the ***ematica circulation. Numerous they are the implied factors of risk in the insorgence of the lesions from decubitus: all the conditions that involve a decrease of the mobility (for involvment of the neuromotor functionality and the old ones entice) and the presence to you of concomitant systemic diseases. The express increase of the old population and the ***cronicizzazione of the pathological processes have carried more and more in evidence during the last few years the problem of the lesions from decubitus that represent therefore an important problem are in terms of human suffering that of economic costs and it sees been involved more professional figures. They come therefore proposed lines guides and protocols for the treatment tu a treatment has up to the present not been found definitive and the only sure data is that one adapted prevention carries out a determining role in preventing the appearance or the progression of the lesions. In order to carry out a correct program of prevention he is indispensable to consider the risk of insorgence of the lesion from decubitus for the single individual and in order to make this is useful to take advantage of validated instruments which the stairs of assesment of the risk. After to have collected all the relative information to the person and the data relatives to the environment is necessary to characterize, knowing the types of assistive devices antidecubitus presents on the market, the technical characteristics of the assistive device to propose.
