Synopsis of recent research by authors named "David Brienza"
David Brienza's recent research primarily focuses on the prevention and management of pressure injuries, particularly in vulnerable populations such as individuals with spinal cord injuries and those using wheelchairs, underscoring the critical role of shear stress, tissue deformation, and cushion performance in injury development.
His work emphasizes the importance of standardized assessment methods for wheelchair cushions and the development of innovative tools, such as a wheelchair repair registry, to support better outcomes for individuals at risk of pressure injuries.
Additionally, Brienza's studies explore the genetic factors influencing inflammatory responses post-injury, aiming to enhance clinical practices and guidelines surrounding pressure injury prevention and treatment.
