Bliss predicts that observable nonblanchable erythema over a bony prominence, such as the greater trochanter, leads to a Grade IV pressure ulcer even though this level of tissue damage is not observable initially.

W tych okolicznościach Bliss przypuszcza, że obserwowany nieblednący rumień, stwierdzany nad wyniosłością kostną, taką jak krętarz większy, prowadzi do odleżyny IV stopnia, pomimo że na początku nie obserwowano uszkodzenia tkanek w tym stopniu.


BONY PROMINENCE- MEDICAL DEFINITION:
bony prominence Any point on the body where the bone is immediately below the skin surface, which can be:
(1) Normal, these being known as bony landmarks; or
(2) Abnormal, which correspond to reactive outgrowths of bone (exostoses), benign tumours (e.g., osteoma) or malignant tumours (e.g., osteosarcoma).

[...]
bony prominence
A part of the body with limited subcutaneous tissue over a bone. Examples include the heels, the iliac crests, and the sacrum. The skin that overlies a bony prominence is more prone to pressure ulceration than more padded body parts.
