Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Pressure Ulcer
- Registration Number
- NCT01857089
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Grenoble
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to assess the intra and inter-subjects variability of the pressure measurement cartography in healthy and well and able volunteers, sitting on a rigid base during two hours.
- Detailed Description
* The purpose of this study is to understand the formation of pressure sore, to improve the care of paraplegic patients.
* This pilot study is going to help to establish a model in healthy volunteers in the prevention of pressure sores.
