    Pressure ulcers should encourage patients to eat and ensure adequate nutrition. Due to the loss of wound secretions, the process of inflammation repair and the formation of new tissue, the patient's needs for energy, protein and other nutrients increase. The intake of protein is especially important because protein is necessary for wound healing.
