Feedback:
A stage IV pressure ulcer is characterized by deeply ulcerated tissue exposing the muscles and bones. Stage I is characterized by intact but reddened skin that remains red and fails to resume its normal color when pressure is relieved. A stage II pressure ulcer is red and accompanied by blistering or a skin tear. A stage III pressure ulcer has a shallow skin crater that extends to the subcutaneous tissue. It may be accompanied by serous or purulent drainage caused by a wound infection.
