Produktbeschreibung
An ulcer is described as a breach in the skin or mucous membrane that is often related to severe and/or long-standing pressure from medical or nonmedical devices. The aim of this study was to evaluate knowledge and practice of physical therapists towards positional training in pressure ulcer management and prevention.

Poor knowledge might have contributed to the poor practice as evident by the significance between knowledge of pressure ulcers complications and the practice of care-providers.
