Would you like to learn more about the #Aetiology and #biomechanics of #pressureulcers? Join us in Rome for the EPUAP Masterclass and listen to Professor @AmitGefen!
Special attention will be given to the effects of sustained #softtissue deformations.

Proud of our (@GefenLab) new @IntWoundJournal #article (https://t.co/x51Ai1g4HI) which compares physiological #skin measurements to assess the most sensitive approach for determining a #prophylactic effect of a #wound #dressing in #PressureUlcer #prevention using @PolyMem example

[Amit Gefen @AmitGefen]

#MedicalDevice-related #PressureUlcer risks can be reduced through suitable selection of a #wound #dressing type for #prophylaxis, our recent #OpenAccess @IntWoundJournal #article reveals: https://t.co/WMuz9RTRvI

#Chronic #wounds affect millions and are a huge financial burden. The specific type of wound #dressing influences how wounds #heal, our recent #OpenAccess @IntWoundJournal @GefenLab paper explains: https://t.co/I1g9JkNzWU

#MachineLearning will play a major role in the #wound #prevention & #care of the future. Our new @IntWoundJournal #OpenAccess article (https://t.co/tW43AgLy7R) demonstrates how.

Seeing the invisible using computer modeling: #Tissue #deformations on enveloping versus non-enveloping support surfaces.

Our recent @IntWoundJournal article reveals the remarkable differences in tissue loading states:

Why is good envelopment so important for preventing #PressureUlcers (#PressureInjuries)? Our new @IntWoundJournal paper (https://t.co/W2alhlyyCo) explains

[Amit Gefen @AmitGefen]

In our latest @IntWoundJournal article we demonstrate why achieving good envelopment by a support surface is so important for preventing #PressureUlcers (#PressureInjuries)

Protecting and growing the legacy of @jclinbiomech (@ElsevierConnect) is my mission as #EditorInChief. In a special #Editorial included in our August 2021 issue, I have asked the founding fathers of this journal to share their memories about the early days.

[Amit Gefen @AmitGefen]

While trying to not be overly dramatic, this is probably the most important work that I have published in my career to date - Our contemporary understanding of the aetiology of #pressure #ulcers just published in the @IntWoundJournal:
