Question 1 of 1

1. Question
Which statement best explains how shear and friction contribute to pressure ulcer development?
- a) Friction is the primary cause of pressure ulcers, while shear has little effect on tissue damage.
- b) Shear occurs only when a patient is sliding in bed and does not affect deep tissues.
- c) Shear causes internal tissue deformation and vascular compromise, while friction increases the risk of shear when combined with pressure.
- d) Pressure ulcers are caused by vertical pressure alone, independent of shear and friction.
