Occurs in bedridden patients who are not turned regularly or who are dragged or pulled across the bed repeatedly. The weight of the body puts pressure on the skin, especially over bony projections. Because this restricts blood supply, the skin becomes pale or blanched at pressure points. At first the skin reddens when pressure is released, but if the situation is not corrected, the cells begin to die and typically small cracks or breaks in the skin appear compressed sites. Permanent damage to the superficial blood vessels and tissue eventually result in degeneration and ulceration of the skin.
