A "Pressure wound" is a euphymism for a decubitus ulcer, a horrible complication of paralysis, involving skin death over pressure points, usually the sacrum or buttocks, and often the subcutaneous tissue and even muscle underneath. It is easily infected, and I suspect that Christopher died in sepsis. Oh, and C.R. was a quadriplegic, not a paraplegic, a vast difference.
