Stage IV Pressure Ulcer

A severe injury to the skin and underlying tissue, typically due to prolonged pressure, reaching into muscle and bone and often resulting in extensive damage or necrosis.

Grafted Surgical Sites

Areas on the body where tissue has been transplanted during surgery to repair damaged areas or improve function.

Air-fluidized

A technology used in medical beds where warm air is passed through very small beads, creating a fluid-like surface which reduces pressure on the skin, used for patients with skin integrity issues.
