A pressure injury is localized tissue necrosis following pressure injury to the skin and/or underlying tissue for prolonged period. The process of ulceration is aggravated by simultaneous shear or direct injury to skin continuity. The terms “decubitus ulcer,” “bedsore,” and “pressure sore” are often used interchangeably, but they do not describe the condition as accurately as pressure injury. The word ‘decubitus’ – derived from the Latin ‘decumbo’ or ‘decumbere’, meaning ‘to lie down’ or ‘recline’ – as the ulcer occur commonly over areas of bony prominences in recumbent position, e.g., the sacrum, trochanter, heel, and occiput. The term ‘pressure ulcer’ describes these ulcers better with pressure as an important etiologic factor.Aim of this case report is to assess the role of applying SWCR guidelines in management of pressure injuries.
