Subepidermal Moisture and Pressure Injury in a Pediatric Population: A Prospective Observational Study
CONCLUSIONS: In this pediatric population, SEM values over skin assessed as normal are lower than SEM values reported for normal skin in adults, 2.37 to 2.76 pF. Subepidermal moisture was significantly higher for blanchable erythema and stage 1 PI at trochanters and heels, and with the presence of pain at sacrum and heels. We recommend that SEM should be examined for detecting PIs in pediatric populations; SEM and pain should be explored in larger pediatric and adult populations.

Wound Healing in the Long-Term Acute Care Setting Using an Air Fluidized Therapy/Continuous Low-Pressure Therapeutic Bed: A Multiple Case Series
CONCLUSIONS: Findings from this multiple case series suggest that the AFT/CLP bed facilitates healing of advanced wounds in medically complex patients when included as part of a wound care program. Despite mild to high risk, no new PIs developed, and severe PIs and large tissue defects significantly improved or completely resolved. One hundred percent of surveyed staff members recommend use of the AFT/CLP bed. (Source: Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing)
