[pic] Unit4222-229: Undertake agreed pressure area care Outcome 1: Understand the anatomy and physiology of the skin in relation to pressure area care 1. Pressure ulcers‚ also known as bed sores or pressure sores are injuries of the skin and underlying tissue. They appear when the affected area of skin is under too much pressure. Due to the pressure the blood flow is disrupted‚ the area does not irrigate‚ therefore nutrients and oxygen do not reach the skin cells. The skin then breaks
