Healing of advanced pressure ulcers by a generic total contact seat: 2 randomized comparisons with low air loss bed treatments1  Mark J Rosenthal, MD, Robert M Felton, PhD, Anne E Nastasi, MD, Bruce D Naliboff, PhD, Judith Harker, PhD, Joseph H Navach, MD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 84, Issue 12, Pages 1733-1742 (December 2003) DOI: 10.1016/S0003-9993(03)00435-0

Fig 3 Force Management System pressure map over time (min). The isobaric pictures were done with the single seat mat Force Management System of a person sitting in a cushioned chair. The colors represent different ranges of pressures, with dark blue representing lower pressures and red representing very high pressures. As time passes, there are dramatic increases in localized pressures because of skeletal settling. Over the course of just 15 minutes, the maximum pressure (seen under the ischials) rises from roughly 75mmHg (time 0) in a very small area of 1 ischial, to well over 112mmHg (time 15) in major areas of both ischials. Information like this helps clinicians and therapists determine the most appropriate and effective product for a given patient.
