The role of alternating air and Silicore overlays in preventing decubitus ulcers.
International Journal of Rehabilitation Research. Revue Internationale de Recherches de Réadaptation 1990
Patients with chronic neurological diseases who were at high risk of decubitus ulcers were randomly assigned to alternating air on silicore mattress overlays for a period of 3 months. Of 148 subjects who completed the trial, more than 50% in each group developed one or more ulcers. No statistically significant differences between groups were found in the incidence, severity, healing duration or the location of the ulcers; with the exception of a significant difference (p less than 0.001) in the categorical location of the trochanters.
