All You Need
to Know About
Pressure Injuries.
What Is a Pressure Injury?
A pressure injury (also known as a pressure ulcer, bedsore, or decubitus ulcer) is localized damage to the skin and/or underlying tissue. These injuries typically occur over a bony area (such as the hips, heels, or tailbone) due to prolonged pressure, shear, or friction. They can develop in as little as 2 hours without proper support.
Pressure injuries are classified by severity into stages (Stage 1–4), with Stage 1 indicating mild skin changes and Stage 4 involving deep tissue damage.
Who Is at Risk?
Anyone with limited mobility is at risk, including:
-
Bedridden patients
-
Individuals using wheelchairs for extended periods
-
Seniors in long-term care
-
Post-surgical patients
-
People with spinal cord injuries or chronic illness
Why Prevention Matters
Preventing pressure injuries isn’t just about comfort; it’s about:
- improving outcomes,
- reducing complications,
- and minimizing healthcare costs.
Untreated pressure injuries can lead to serious infections, longer hospital stays, and even life-threatening complications.

FAQs

What is a pressure injury, and why is prevention important?
A pressure injury, also known as a pressure ulcer or bedsore, occurs when prolonged pressure reduces blood flow to the skin and underlying tissues, causing damage. Prevention is critical because pressure injuries can lead to serious infections, prolonged hospital stays, and reduced quality of life. Our products help redistribute pressure to reduce this risk.
What causes pressure injuries?
Pressure injuries are caused by prolonged pressure on the skin and underlying tissues, most often over bony areas such as the heels, hips, tailbone, elbows, and shoulders. When pressure reduces blood flow for an extended period, the skin and surrounding tissue can become damaged.
Several factors contribute to the development of pressure injuries, including:
- Prolonged pressure from remaining in the same position for long periods.
- Shear, which occurs when the skin stays in place while deeper tissues move, such as sliding down in a bed or chair.
- Friction caused by the skin rubbing against bedding, clothing, or medical equipment.
- Moisture from perspiration or incontinence, which can weaken the skin and make it more vulnerable to damage.
- Reduced mobility, poor circulation, inadequate nutrition, and certain medical conditions that affect the body’s ability to protect and repair tissue.
While regular repositioning and skin assessments remain essential, using the appropriate therapeutic support surface can significantly reduce pressure, improve comfort, and play an important role in a comprehensive pressure injury prevention plan.
Bosse Medica works with healthcare professionals to recommend the right support surface based on each patient’s clinical needs, helping reduce risk while supporting better patient outcomes.
Who is at the highest risk of developing pressure injuries?
Anyone with limited mobility can be at risk of developing a pressure injury, but certain individuals are more vulnerable than others.
People at higher risk include:
- Older adults
- Individuals who spend extended periods in bed or a wheelchair
- Hospital and long-term care patients
- People recovering from surgery or serious illness
- Individuals with spinal cord injuries or neurological conditions
- Patients with poor circulation, diabetes, or reduced sensation
- Anyone experiencing poor nutrition or dehydration
Early risk assessment and the use of appropriate therapeutic support surfaces are key to preventing pressure injuries before they develop.
Can pressure injuries be prevented?
Yes. While not every pressure injury is preventable, the vast majority can be avoided with a proactive, evidence-based prevention plan.
Effective pressure injury prevention includes:
- Regular repositioning and mobility assistance
- Routine skin assessments
- Proper nutrition and hydration
- Moisture management
- Using the appropriate therapeutic support surface based on the individual’s clinical needs and risk factors
No single intervention is enough on its own. The best outcomes are achieved when healthcare teams combine these strategies to reduce pressure, protect vulnerable tissue, and support patient comfort.
At Bosse Medica, we help clinicians, healthcare facilities, and caregivers select the most appropriate pressure redistribution mattresses, wheelchair cushions, and support surfaces to complement their pressure injury prevention programs. Our recommendations are based on clinical needs—not sales goals—so you can feel confident you’re choosing the right solution for your patients and your facility.
Can mattresses be customized to fit different bed sizes or needs?
Yes, we offer custom sizing options to accommodate a wide range of bed frames and clinical requirements. Whether for hospital beds, home care beds, or specialized clinical setups, we ensure a precise fit to maximize effectiveness.
What is a therapeutic support surface?
A therapeutic support surface is a specialized mattress, mattress overlay, cushion, or seating surface designed to redistribute pressure, reduce shear and friction, manage moisture, and help protect the skin of individuals who are at risk of developing pressure injuries or who require enhanced pressure management.
Unlike standard mattresses or cushions, therapeutic support surfaces are engineered to provide the appropriate level of support based on a patient’s mobility, medical condition, and clinical risk. They can play an important role in both preventing pressure injuries and supporting the healing of existing wounds when used as part of a comprehensive care plan.
Common types of therapeutic support surfaces include:
- Pressure redistribution foam mattresses
- Alternating pressure mattresses
- Low air loss mattress systems
- Air and hybrid support surfaces
- Wheelchair and seating cushions
At Bosse Medica, we work closely with clinicians, healthcare facilities, and caregivers to recommend the most appropriate therapeutic support surface for each patient’s unique clinical needs. Whether you’re looking to rent or purchase, our goal is to provide the right solution to improve comfort, support care, and achieve better patient outcomes.
Who can benefit from using these therapeutic support surfaces?
Our products are ideal for high-risk patients in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home care settings. This includes bedridden individuals, patients with limited mobility, wheelchair users, and those recovering from surgery or injury.
How do I know which support surface my patient needs?
Selecting the right support surface requires evaluating several clinical factors, including the patient’s mobility, pressure injury risk, existing wounds, weight, overall health, and care environment.
No single mattress or cushion is right for every patient. A comprehensive assessment helps determine whether a foam mattress, alternating pressure system, low air loss mattress, wheelchair cushion, or another therapeutic support surface is most appropriate.
At Bosse Medica, we provide expert guidance to help clinicians and caregivers choose the right support surface, ensuring patients receive the level of protection and comfort they need.
Are Bosse Medica products clinically tested and supported?
Absolutely. Our products are backed by clinical research and tested for reliability. We also provide comprehensive support to help clinicians and caregivers implement them effectively in care plans.
How do I choose between foam, gel, or air-cell wheel cushions?
The choice depends on patient needs, risk factors, and comfort preferences. Foam cushions offer firm support, gel cushions provide pressure relief with cooling benefits, and air-cell cushions allow for adjustable pressure and maximum redistribution. Our team can help you select the best option.
Should I rent or purchase a therapeutic mattress?
The right choice depends on your patient’s clinical needs, expected length of care, and treatment goals.
Renting is often the best option for short-term recovery, changing clinical conditions, or when flexibility is important. Purchasing may be the better investment for long-term care, ongoing use, or facilities looking to standardize equipment across multiple patients.
At Bosse Medica, we offer both rental and purchase options. Our team works with healthcare professionals to recommend the most appropriate solution based on clinical needs—not sales goals.
How can I order or get more information about your products?
You can contact our team directly through the website or by phone. We’re here to provide product details, customization options, and support to meet your specific needs.
