Relevance – PUs in individuals with SCI are a persistent and costly problem. – Continued development of new technologies that support and sustain self-managed care is an important prevention strategy.

Effectiveness of technologies in preventing PUs is limited due to a lack of incidence reporting. Recommendation: – Develop integrated technologies that address multiple risk factors.
