Pressure sores typically develop on the exposed areas of the body, where the bones are only protected by a thin layer of skin. With Levabo s fl exible single-patient product range it is possible to take quick and effective action in re-positioning the patient before any exposed areas are affected. Shear/Slip forces Slip forces are particularly dangerous for the tissue that is already expose to pressure, because the relatively small lateral impact of the tissue is a torsion force of the vessels, which then is closed off. Typically, these slippage forces are seen from incorrect posture or when the patient progresses into the bed by lifting the board. wing wedge 30o Lap Lap Max NEW arm rest elbow elbow medium elbow & heel NEW 7
