Pressure ulcer grading is a useful tool for defining the severity of pressure ulcers. However, it is obvious that education is essential in order to ensure that grades are correctly identified and that incontinence lesions are not mistaken for pressure ulcers. The EPUAP provides access to a very ...
The injury can present as intact skin or an open ulcer and may be painful. The injury occurs as a result of intense and/or prolonged pressure or pressure in combination with shear. The tolerance of soft tissue for pressure and shear may also be affected by...
PUs are staged with a 4 point classification system denoting severity, ranging from stage I (intact skin, non-blanchable erythema), to stage IV (full thickness tissue loss exposing bone, tendon, or muscle) [1]. In 2007 the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel added 2 categories of PUs: ...

However, the conceptual meaning of pressure ulcer/injury categories described within the various classification systems is comparable and the current evidence does not indicate that one classification is superior to another. Therefore, the Guideline Governance Group created a crosswalk of the major ...
