Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Caroline Portoghese"
Caroline Portoghese's recent research focuses on understanding the biomechanical factors contributing to pressure injury (PI) development, particularly the effects of shear stress and shear strain on soft tissue health.
In her article "The Role of Shear Stress and Shear Strain in Pressure Injury Development," Portoghese emphasizes the importance of accurate assessment and management to mitigate PI risks, highlighting the necessity of addressing shear forces in clinical practice.
Additionally, her earlier work, such as the article "Seated impact," preliminarily explores the implications of seated positions and impacts on patient safety, complementing her ongoing investigations into pressure injury prevention.
