Respuesta :

The correct answer for this question is Placing a thin pillow under the bony prominences.

An area of wounded skin is referred to as a pressure injury, bedsore, pressure ulcer, pressure sore, or decubitus ulcer. When pressure is applied to the skin's surface, a pressure injury occurs. This force may exert constant pressure on a patch of skin, or it may pull (shear) the skin away from another surface. These wounds typically occur across the body's bony regions (hips, heels, tailbone, elbows, head and ankles). A pressure injury can become life-threatening if it develops to a deep wound or becomes infected.
