 Pressure sores Pressure sores are ulcers caused by constant pressure &
shear forces in bed ridden & immobilized patients. Patient’s
own body weight puts continuous pressure on bony
prominences(e.g. head, shoulders, coccyx, heels) & cuts off
the blood & Oxygen supply to the skin tissue which leads to
pressure sores. Moisture & Shear forces are other important
factors which precipitate pressure sores formation. Pressure
sores are extremely painful, very difficult to heal & ultimately
may lead to death of the patient.

Pressure sores during surgery
Various Operative positions lead to excessive pressure on different points on the body. This can lead to nerve damage & capillary closure resulting into pressure sores. Bony prominences of the body are at highest risk. NORMA PSP Gel Positioners help in reducing the risk of nerve damage & pressure sores during surgery. Their consistency is very close to that of the human fatty tissue. Using them at the appropriate places to position the patient helps in reducing the pressure and shear forces at vulnerable points thus minimizing the risk of capillaries closure, necrosis, nerve damage & pressure sores. NORMA PSP Gel Positioners are tissue friendly and help in maintaining uniform temperature environment which keeps the patient comfortable.
