La recente giurisprudenza prevede un contenzioso svantaggioso con una forte soccombenza per negligenza inerente le ulcere da pressione, anche quando queste sono lesioni di fine vita non diagnosticate correttamente come l’ulcera terminale di Kennedy e, quindi, patologie inguaribili che non prevedono una responsabilità professionale. Gli autori analizzano sia la giurisprudenza disponibile degli ultimi 15 anni in materia di decessi attribuibili anche in parte a lesioni da pressione, che cartelle cliniche disponibili, evidenziando le differenze tra queste due problematiche, focalizzando il differente aspetto di responsabilità professionale e le attuali “tendenze” giuridiche.
