We recognize the crucial significance of offloading and redistributing pressure when it comes to treating wounds, specifically pressure ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers. Our skilled team of wound care experts provides tailored offloading methods and devices, aiming to relieve pressure on sensitive areas, facilitate the healing process, and reduce the likelihood of wound recurrence.
Offloading and pressure redistribution are methods used to prevent and manage pressure ulcers. Offloading involves relieving pressure on vulnerable areas by repositioning or using specialized equipment. Pressure redistribution distributes weight evenly across a larger surface area to reduce the risk of pressure ulcers. Both techniques aim to minimize excessive pressure and promote healing.
Offloading: Offloading involves removing or reducing pressure from a specific area of the body. This can be achieved through various methods:
In addition to offloading, pressure redistribution techniques focus on spreading the load over a larger surface area, thereby reducing pressure on specific points. Some common methods include:
