Researchers will compare Tocotrienols-loaded formulated dressing to conventional dressing (standard of care as control) in pressure ulcers. Participants will: * Have their pressure ulcers checked by a study doctor to ensure they are infection-free and suitable ulcer fitting the inclusion criteria * Undergo
