Study Population

The laboratory observation will consist of one non-patient subject (N=1). The hospital observation will consist of 18 patients (N=18) hospitalized at the Columbia University Medical Center on the general care floor at-risk for hospital-acquired pressure ulcers. The hospitalized subjects will be stratified into three groups. Six subjects with normal BMI classification (18.5 -24.9), six with overweight BMI classification (25.0-29.9), and six with overweight BMI classification (30.0-39.9) will comprise the study sample.
