Pressure Redistribution Pads Market: 2018 - 2028 | Global Industry Size, Analysis, Development, Growth | Apex Medical Corporation, Invacare Corporation, Bos Medical International

Pressure redistribution pads or cushions help to prevent the development of pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers can occur where the skin is in constant contact with the bones or the other hard surfaces. The pressure redistribution pads work by distributing or reducing pressure and friction force. Pressure ulcers also are known as pressure sores or bedsores and can occur at the buttocks, sacrum, coccyx, heels and other areas of the body when the body part is pressed against the hard surfaces or bones for a prolonged period of time, creating unrelieved pressure and the blood supply to these parts gets cut off. This restricted blood supply results in tissue damage or tissue death. Pressure redistribution pads dissipate the pressure over the pad to protect the skin from ulcers. The pressure redistribution pads are made mainly of silicone. Silicon is flexible and has the ability to redistribute the pressure and to protect the skin from bony areas.
