Saturday, October 17, 2026
10:30 AM - 11:30 AM
This session will explore the latest clinical evidence on the impact of support surface microclimate management features in preventing and treating pressure injuries. Faculty will review recent studies assessing how temperature and moisture control influence skin integrity and healing outcomes. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of when and how microclimate management should be prioritized in support surface selection to optimize patient outcomes.
