Kennedy Ulcers, Pressure Sores and Bed Sores: What is the Difference? A Kennedy Ulcer is a form of a pressure sore which develops if a patient is left in one position for too long of a time period. It may also be referred to as 3:30 Syndrome. The skin loses blood flow to the affected area and the skin tissue dies. This leaves a hole in the skin, known as a pressure sore.
