The Braden Scale was developed in 1987 and comprises six subscales that reflect degrees of sensory perception, moisture, activity, mobility, nutrition, friction, and shear.

As mediamatrix says : friction can be included.

Shear force
Bedsores (pressure ulcers) are accepted to be caused by three different tissue forces:
Pressure, or the compression of tissues. In most cases, this compression is caused by the force of bone against a surface, as when a patient remains in a single decubitus position for a lengthy period. After an extended amount of time with decreased tissue perfusion, ischemia occurs and can lead to tissue necrosis if left untreated in an immunocompromised patient.
***Shear force***, or a force created when the skin of a patient stays in one place as the deep fascia and skeletal muscle slide down with gravity. This can also cause the pinching off of blood vessels which may lead to ischemia and tissue necrosis.
Friction, or a force resisting the shearing of skin. This may cause excess shedding through layers of epidermis.
