Background
Individuals with persistent musculoskeletal pain (PMP) have an increased risk of developing co-morbid health conditions and for early-mortality compared to those without pain. Despite irrefutable evidence supporting the role of physical a...

Exploring repositioning movements in sitting with ‘at risk’ groups using accelerometry and interface pressure mapping technologies (2017)
Journal Article
Stinson, M., Ferguson, R., & Porter-Armstrong, A. (2018). Exploring repositioning movements in sitting with ‘at risk’ groups using accelerometry and interface pressure mapping technologies. Journal of Tissue Viability, 27(1), 10-15. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtv.2017.11.001

Background
Despite high quality guidelines underpinning pressure ulcer care (NPUAP/EPUAP/PPPIA, 2014), pressure ulceration still poses a significant financial impact on health care services in treatment and staff costs as well as having a profound e...
