Introduction

The pressure sore was named as "BED SORE" in the literature of English and a decubitus in the nineteenth century (Parish, Witkowski, & Crissey, 2012). The word decubitus ulcer came from the Latin word decub called "lying down". This is a misnomer, however, as a significant percentage of these kinds of sores occur when the patient in a seated position. Therefore, the word "pressure sore" should be also used as it is more accurate and characterizes the pathophysiology (Singh, Sangwan, Singh, Siwach, & Shukla, 2013). Bedsores were areas that injured skin and tissue that progress when prolonged pressure shuts off flow to sensitive areas of the body, especially buttocks, sacrum and heels, hips, maleolus, scapula. The bedsores usually arise from the small vessel thrombosis (Bennett, Bellantoni, & Ouslander, 1989); this causes gangrene, sloughing and necrosis, spreading more or less rapidly and extensively according to the tissue's resistant strength. The causative infection is often of a virulent form of streptococcus that causes necrosis. Bedsores will develop rapidly, progress fast, and are often problematic to cure. Whereas bedsore has troubled doctors and patients since ancient times, its lack of interest in many doctors has resulted in insufficient preventive care and lack of understanding of the treatment (Bergert et al., 2009).

In the late 19th and early 20th century’s bedsore seen most frequently young patients who had a variety of wasting diseases, including tuberculosis, osteomyelitis, and chronic renal disease. The 14.8 per cent annual prevalence rate among patients who were admitted in hospitals and generally in the ICU and patients between 70 and 79 years of age (Amlung, Miller, & Bosley, 2001). General hospital research shows that bedsores develop from 3% to 4.5% of patients during prolonged hospitalization. Sores develop from 25 per cent to 85 per cent of patients with spinal cord injury. Sores appear in a patient with quadriplegia and paraplegia during their initial hospital stay in 20 per cent to 40 per cent. One major rehabilitation hospital confirmed that in 1988, the estimated price to treat a severe pressure sore was $58,000 (Adkins, Water, & Kendall, 1988).

In general, the possible causative factor (friction, shear, stress) must be removed. Shear forces, Pressure, and friction may induce microcirculatory compression leading to ischemia that characterized by inflammation and tissue anoxia. Tissue anoxia results in ulceration, cell death, and necrosis. The infected area needs good cleaning and dressing. Wound healing requires Topical antiseptics and antibiotics are used during the cleaning process, Appropriate protein, zinc supplements, and vitamin C and can be recommended if there is a diet deficiency and cleansing and pressure irrigation, ultrasound therapy, laser, hydrocolloid dressing, alginate dressing, Nanosilver dressing, creams and ointments, biofilm, negative pressure therapy, skin substitutes (bioengineered skin) Bedsore will grow quickly and is often hard to treat. There are several ways to help avoid some bedsores and help to heal. Nowadays, ulcer treatment is designed with the objective of reversing the factor that originally caused the ulcer.

Doctors and nurses are important warriors who manage bedsore treatment effectively. The nurses should analysis of Patient and bedsore, managing of tissue loads, ulcer treatment, controlling of bacterial colonization and infection, operative pressure repair, training and enhancement of quality (Beckrich & Aronovitch, 1999). This review summarizes the latest development in the management of bedsore by new technologies and bedsore management.

Pathophysiology

Review of the pathophysiology and management of this problem is timely because of internists increasing role in geriatric care and extended care facilities, the great impact of pressure sores on patient rehabilitation and health care costs, and the frequent need for surgical consultation (Kanj, Wilking, & Phillips, 1998).

The very first thing mentioned in bedsores development is a dusky red discolouration, due to passive skin hyperemia. It was accompanied by a purplish tinge, which gradually changes to black as a result of gangrene and causes skin necrosis.

Skin necrosis is mainly for interference with the skin blood supply (Yastrub, 2010). The blood flow to the skin is the subcutaneous tissue and any sustained pressure that is sufficient to obstruct the circulation for even more than several hours can result in tissue death and ulcer that often affects mainly for bedridden patients. The most commonly involved areas are those that are exposed to pressure over the trochanters, sacrum, the scapula, the spinous vertebra process. The outer malleoli, heels and internal condyles of the humerus. Bedsore may happen in highly susceptible tissue on any part of the body and it is most frequently the results of continues the pressure between beds.

The prime known and most widely recognized example of tissue necrosis is bedsore. Since many conditions lead to the improvement of pressure sores, 4 are critical: shear forces pressure, friction, and moisture (Cichowitz, Pan, & Ashton, 2009). The force applied to a unit area is the key element. Extra pressure over bony prominence contributes to a wide gradient of 3-dimensional pressure.

Scientific investigation on these pressure gradients shows that the capillary arteriolar limb pressure in the skin was 32 mm Hg; the midcapillary pressure is 20 mm Hg; the venous limb pressure was 12 mm Hg; the sacrum and the trochanters can be large as 100 to 150 mmHg (Houle, 1969). When an average 70 kg person with the total body surface of 1.8 m2 would be in an equally distributed supine position, the average pressure would be 5.7 mm Hg at any given point. However, this is not distributed equally but focused in the focal areas, usually over a bony prominence. For comparison, the pressure exerted on the toe of a ballerina is 2600 mm Hg while the force exerted on any given unit of skin when a patient is floating in a liquid is 20 mm Hg. Friction is a force generated when two contact surfaces move over each other, such as when a Pearson is dragged along all bedsheets. The friction effect is the displacement of the exterior defensive stratum corneum, accelerating the initiation of ulceration. The ultimate major causative influence is moisture caused by faecal either urinary soiling either diarrhoea, which increases the risk of the formation of pressure sore by fivefold (Allman et al., 1986) are shown in Figure 1.

Complications of Bedsore

• weird changes in skin colour or texture

• Dusky red, slight discoloration caused by skin hyperemia. It is supported by a purplish tinge, gradually turning to black as the results of gangrene (Desforges & Allman, 1989).

• Edema

• Pus like draining

• A skin layer that feels warmer either cooler to a touch than in another areas

• Tender regions.

Common sites of pressure ulcers

When there is too much pressure on your skin for an extended period, it diminishes the blood flow to that area which might lead to necrosis and the friction to your skin caused during bedridden as well as during use of a wheelchair. People who always stay in bed can be at a higher risk of necrosis in the area of the body like the heel, leg, pelvis, scapula, shoulder as shown in Figure 2, and the people who always stay in wheelchair cause necrosis in the region like the scapula, sacrum, heel as shown in Figure 3.

For wheelchair users, bedsores sometimes occur on the skin over the following sites.

Stages Of Bedsore

There are several stages of bedsores that affect our skin. In the initial stage cause redness, erythema, and skin epidermal inconsistency, in the second stage, it causes swelling and blister forming, in third stage cause loss of whole thick skin, heavy crater, and the final stage cause Skin loss of full-depth down to muscle as well as bone and all the treatment for their respective stages are shown in Table 1.

Techniques For Preventing As Well As Treating Bed Sores

Antipressure devices

Antipressure systems are also suggested as precautionary action for persons at major risk and also for patients that already have ulcers (Andersen, Jensen, Kvorning, & Bach, 1982). The antipressure systems should seek to reduce the pressure on bony prominences towards that range only around 32 mmHg the commonly aggred range over which capillary blood flow will cause as well as outcome in tissue ischemia.

Antipressure systems can also be static and dynamic. Static systems maintain immobile except as a reaction to patient motion, and this theoretically causes pressure equalization under the patient by reallocating the patient mass. Samples of static systems include air, gel, foam as well as water mattresses. Dynamic systems need energy and also have movable components; Examples include alternating air beds, air-conditioned bed and low air loss beds. Within each of these categories, there are pressure relieving and pressure reduction devices (Seiler & Stahelin, 1985). Example: metron anti bedsore elevating system.

Foam Devices

Modern medicine requires high demands for the ideal cover to treat burns, wounds, and ulcers. Foam is the widely use of material for pressure relieving. Foam materials could be filled and are promoted with different thicknesses, rigidity and strength. The compaction and conformability of the foam could be calculated as per the percentage with indentation load deflection (ILD). The strength needed to compress the foam selected per cent of its thickness. Features of foam surfaces linked with low interface pressures include an acceptable thickness of three to four inches, 25 per cent ILD with a load and foam density of 30 lb in between 1.3 and 2.5 lb/cu ft. More possibly, the foam making will increase the interface pressure. ILD and memory reduce the foam deteriorate over time. Thus the characteristics relieving pressure are lost. Foam items are simple to use, lesser weight as well as cheap. The main drawback is that they can hold liquid, are hard to clean when soiled and are costly for dispose of (Burnell, 1969). Example:anti-decubitus cushion.

Air filled equipments

Air filled equipments are widely adapted. Static air mattresses are preferably equipped with air cells as well as bladders. It can equalize When a patient is not trying to move, the pressure inside each cell (Soonthornkiti & Jearanaisilawong, 2013). Thus every part of the body in touch with support surface is hypothetically at similar pressure of the tissue interface. Cushions and mattresses are constructed in an alternative design from rows of interconnected, air-filled cells which are individually displayed alternating pressure pads, air suspension mattresses, or air suspension mattresses are dynamic air-filled items. This filled air effects in a reallocation of body mass off bony prominences, and differ in pressure gradients are created to increase blood flow. It also leads to prevention of Bedsore. Example: MCP air pump and bubble mattrus, kosmocare spiral air mattress.

Water and gel filled equipment

Water filled equipments are promoted but used as minimum frequently in maximum settings. The patient's mass replaces the water in a mattresses so that the supported surface proves the body as well as the patients float on the surface. While water is cheap and the components are commonly easier to wash, the use of water-filled products is restricted due to the mass of loaded systems, the time take to install, the need to monitor the fluid level and the potential for leakage. Gel-filled equipmement are the variant of water-based equipment and gel filled equipment are a variant of water-based systems and overlays and beds filled with gel are also marketed. Such products are typically more easy to wash, long-standing, but they are always heavy and costly (Agostini, Baker, & Bogardus, 2001). Example: anti-air cure air bedsores, PAXMAX water bed.

Sheet of hydrogels

A sheet of hydrogels is a solid and non-sticky gel sheet consisting of a connection of hydrophilic cross-linking Polymers that could accumulate more amounts of water without breaking down its structural integrity. They have a fixed shape in contrast to the amorphous hydrogel. They could be used as a medium for skin treatments, and to remove their wound exudate mass. These were durable for water vapor as well as oxygen, but it's not water or even bacteria, but they provide better visibility of a wound because of their translucent behaviour.

These could be used for mild to mildly exudative sores and for the autolytic debridement of pressure sores in Stages two as well as three. Patients cannot be used to exude heavy sores (Edwards & Goheen, 2011). Example: Suprasorb, medela.

Wound vacuum-assisted closure

Vacuum based closure is done with polyurethane foam followed by negative vacuum pressure during bedsore. The sore is loaded with foam, and a film is sealed. The vacuum tube is constantly incorporated and utilized. This method is developed on infected sores as well as fistula wounds (Schimp et al., 2004). Example: VAC therapy system, snap wound care system.

Skin Bioprinting

Thickness skin injuries as well as serious burn wounds, are significant causes of mortality and morbidity. Bioprinting invention has been suggested as a method of distribution to efficiently position the skin cells on the wound. One of the benefits of skin bioprinting seems to be that it also has the potential to reproduce the native tissue architecture with a strong degree of accuracy; bioprinting can reproduce the wound’s compositional complexity. It seemed to be effective without detrimental adverse effects or intense scarring. An alternative to specific skin grafting was the development and application of many biological skin substitutes. Cell-based therapy would be another effective option to repair and recover skin tissue. Bioprinting invention has been suggest as a method of delivery to effectively place the skin cells on the wound. Printing allows two or more cell types to be positioned in distinct positions relative to one another because they can be incorporated into the printed structure, leading for recovery to the skin with pigmentation and hair. Ultimately, printing is perfect for large wound areas which protect different parts of the body as the tissue composition can be controlled and geometry controlled (He et al., 2018).

The skin bioprinter we have built is designed to print one layer of skin at a time. To this point, the wound is scanned for topography and wound area. The scan is converted to a 3D picture used by the printer to precisely map a wound path. Inside a fibrin/collagen solution, culture-expanding keratinocytes and fibroblasts and are suspended separately.

Initially, fibroblast mixture is printed. Even if they are printing, the mixture is cross-linked to thrombin that is carried in a different cartridge. After printing the fibroblasts, the keratinocytes were also printed on over fibroblasts using the same technique. The previous scan indicates the quantity needed for every application of the cell type. The scan leads to more accurate outcomes, whereas the mixture of cell or gel imitates the natural skin composition and results in faster curing and better cosmetic results with low scarring. Because it still is a new area, several groups also made great progress with skin bioprinting using different methods since bioprinting is still in early stages, scientist is trying to refine the cell delivery mechanism through a variety of approaches. Some many hydrogels were tested in order to print and evaluate cell migration via them. Scientists also are researching the use of laser printing cells in smaller amounts than skin bioprinters require (Murphy, Skardal, & Atala, 2013).

Labview Virtual Instrument

A new approach is proposed to develop the traditional bedsore prevention mattress, mattress is separated in areas to be managed respectively, multiple grouping of stress sensors will be used to calculate the pressure signals in each region, the pressure signals are then collected towards the computer (Su, 2014). The virtual Lab-VIEW device is developed to examine the evaluated pressure data and measure the condition of each part of a human body which has been pressed continuously. The LabVIEW device sends control signals to corresponding mattress pumps for the sections that are alerted by the device (Bergstrom, Braden, Boynton, & Bruch, 1995).

Conclusions

A bedsore is a massive problem for geriatrics persons. In certain cases, risks associated with bedsore include infection and even death. When bedsore develops, the drug therapy also included appropriate nutrition, including vitamin C, protein and zinc supplements that decrease bacterial load and provide a pressure-free physiological environment for the wound to heal. For certain cases, specific beds may be suggested, patients need to learn to prevent sores themselves, and this is, of course, the only practicable economical way. In the beginning, patients should be helped to support themselves by lift, shift and relieve pain, and this recovery should be initiated as soon as possible until they are fully paralyzed in both arms. Avoiding shear force is equally important as avoiding direct pressure. Pressure-relieving techniques remain the framework for Bedsore's treatment and prevention. Doctors need to consider the various mechanisms by which bedsore are developed to choose from among the variety of available pressure relief tools and approaches. This review summarizes the latest development in the management of bedsore by new technologies.
