The weight of the head is held up by the head; however COVID-19 patients placed in a prone position may experience pressure ulcers resulting from prolonged exposure/contact of the surface with the skin. Prophylactic dressing is a multi-layered silicone foam dressing which can be applied to the resting surface to relieve the stress and strain of the body weight on the soft tissue. This reduces the chances of a pressure ulcer especially for COVID-19 patients with low mobility.
