a, b and c
Moist skin can cause maceration, increasing friction and shear forces, which are risk factors for pressure injury. Immobility leads to prolonged pressure on tissues without relief, a major cause of pressure injury. A healthy diet (with adequate protein, vitamins, etc.) actually helps in preventing pressure injury by maintaining good skin and tissue integrity. So the factors that put an individual at risk are moist skin and immobility.
