Abstract
In Brazil, there is no published article that measures the expense of this condition for the health system. There are international studies that show that treating a pressure ulcer is significantly more expensive than preventing it. The purpose of this article is to describe the incidence of patients with hospitalization related to pressure ulcers, in the city of São Paulo, in the period of the 1st increase in cases of COVID - 19 (March 2020 to December 2020), as well as the related expense with these hospitalizations.
