pubmed:abstractText |
Pressure readings over the sacral and trochanter areas were obtained on 30 healthy adult volunteers. An anatomically contoured mattress overlay (Conforma II) was compared to a standard hospital mattress. The difference in the mean pressures over the sacral areas represented a 52% reduction in pressure, whereas, a 46% pressure reduction was obtained over the trochanter area. Body weight was significantly associated with higher mean pressures.
