Health workers caring for bedridden serious patients believe that it is better to carry out timely prevention of bedsores than to treat them later. In such patients, skin lesions form quite quickly due to a violation of trophic processes in the tissues and deterioration of blood supply.

In the place of the appearance of initial skin lesions, a necrotic focus will appear after a while. It threatens the patient's life, as it serves as an entrance gate for infection. Pathogenic bacteria contribute to the development of various purulent soft tissue lesions or even cause sepsis. Now there are special tools that, with regular use, can prevent the appearance of bedsores.

Preventive measures

It is necessary to prevent the occurrence of bedsores, but it is not always easy to do this. Skin lesions in a bedridden patient can develop even when perfect care is provided. The main method of preventing this disorder is considered to be regular turning over of the patient.

The method allows to reduce the negative impact on soft tissues in vulnerable places without damaging the skin. It is necessary to change the patient's position in bed at least once every two hours. Foam or gel pads can be used to reduce pressure on the skin in vulnerable areas. Special mattresses are used for prevention.

It is important to take care of the patient's body, protect the skin and constantly monitor its condition. This will prevent bedsores at the initial stage and prevent the development of complications. The skin is cleaned with a soft soap solution and warm water. Then the surface is carefully dried.

Indelible antiseptics are also used. The skin needs to be treated with talcum powder to protect it from moisture. If it is dry, a moisturizing lotion is applied to it. It is necessary to check the condition of the skin daily in order to notice signs of developing bedsore.
