Your client has a pressure ulcer over the sacral area that is believed to be due to shearing force. The client’s family asks you to explain shearing force. You would be most accurate if you tell the family that shearing force involves: 1. A tearing of the muscle tissue due to a considerable downward force. 2. A sudden break in skin integrity due to being pulled against the bed linens. 3. A superficial skin fold getting pinched, and tissues irritated by the pressure. 4. Superficial skin surface relatively unmoving in relation to the bed surface.
