Electrical stimulation in combating pressure ulcer for immobilize subjects: a conceptual framework

. A paradigm shift in health system did intensify the need for research on wearable electronics. There are numerous reasons that could lead to skin ulcers. The most common are lesion due to constant pressure, incontinence control, excessive humidity and postural changes. Over the years, there hav...
