Abstract

Objectives: Subcutaneous pressure and subcutaneous shear force were investigated using a bone protrusion model to investigate a polyurethane film dressing (hereinafter referred to as adhesive film) for preventing shear force. Our hypothesis was that when pressure or shear force was applied to the body surface, the adhesive film would 1) decrease the shear force on the skin surface and 2) decrease the effect of the external force on the subcutaneous layer.
