Acta Radiologica, 1988In patients with longstanding and/or deep pressure ulcers radiology is usually consulted. Survey radiography and sinography in 14 patients with pressure ulcers (6 over the tuber ischii and 8 over the femoral trochanter) were evaluated.

Nursing Older People, 2010
This study compared two pressure ulcer risk scales (Braden and Waterlow) with a generic nursing Care Dependency Scale (CDS), which provides general information about the patient's individual need for care. The CDS is based on Virginia Henderson's theoretical framework and has 15 items covering physical and psychological aspects of daily living.
