title: [Prevention of decubitus, edema, contractures].
abstract: This paper presents a historical reminder of the development of medical care, a contemporary consideration of the division of care, as well as the definition of the term-quality medical care, and a review of the preventive measures for bed-sore, edema and contracture. In regard to the fact that care and therapy are a tightly bound process, they must also be applied as such. The definition of the term-quality medical care is an open question. The prevention of bed-sore, edema and contracture is the element of quality care.
