The relationship between pressure ulcer incidence and buttock-seat cushion interface pressure in at-risk elderly wheelchair users David M. Brienza, PhD, Patricia E. Karg, MS, Mary Jo Geyer, MS, Sheryl Kelsey, PhD, Elaine Trefler, MEd Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Volume 82, Issue 4, Pages 529-533 (April 2001) DOI: 10.1053/apmr.2001.21854 Copyright © 2001 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Comparison of distribution for (A) peak pressure and (B) average of the highest 4 pressures between pressure ulcer (PU) and no pressure ulcer (No-PU) outcome groups. The difference in mean was significant (p ≤.01) in both cases. Box plots show the minimum, maximum, upper quartile, lower quartile, mean (grey line), and median (solid line) for each data set.
