I spoke with CBN Florianópolis to explain about pressure injuries, also known as pressure ulcers. It is a skin lesion, in areas of bony prominence, usually developing in individuals with limited mobility or who are bedridden. Patients with COVID, for example, who are hospitalized for a long time in the ICU, can develop pressure ulcers.
