Escarre au lit : Comment prévenir et traiter l'escarre au niveau des fesses et hanches ?

In a previous video, we explained what a pressure ulcer is and how to prevent it:    • QU’EST-CE QU’UNE ESCARRE ? COMMENT LA PREV...  . As we now know, a pressure ulcer forms when there is prolonged pressure on an area of ​​the body, when soft tissue is compressed between the support and a bony prominence. The sacrum, ischium, and trochanter are among the areas most commonly affected by pressure ulcers, often caused by prolonged bed rest and lack of mobility. Because the skin is thin in these areas, the bone is in constant contact with the mattress or the seat of a chair. In this video, we will focus on preventing pressure ulcers on the buttocks and hips of a bedridden person and on their treatment from a material perspective: the hospital bed and mattress. In another video, we discuss proper bed positioning using pillows, a bed rail, or a trapeze bar (coming in November). Karine Dubreil, occupational therapist, and Dr. Vincent Ould Aoudia from the Pays de la Loire Gerontology Center explain how. Other tutorials on pressure ulcers: What is a pressure ulcer? How can it be prevented?    • QU’EST-CE QU’UNE ESCARRE ? COMMENT LA PREV...   These "tuto'nomies" are tutorials designed to support independence. They are intended for caregivers who assist a loved one experiencing a loss of autonomy. These tutorials are adapted and developed with healthcare and social service professionals and the expertise of the Pays de la Loire Gerontology Center.
