| - A pressor field was a ship-generated energy wave that covered a vessel which protected it from attack. Despite this, it can be overwhelmed.
- A pressor field was a type of force field similar in principle to a tractor beam but instead inverted so as to create an effect of applying external pressure to an object. It essentially pushed an object rather than pulled. Pressor or tractor fields were too diffuse to cause any difference in organics or small vehicles. However, larger vehicles were at risk of repulsor failure.
- A pressor field was a type of force field that staunched the flow of blood. In 2371, while operating on Bareil Antos, Doctor Julian Bashir ordered a nurse to put a pressor field on one of his arteries. As his arterial disruption had reached a critical level, the field was insufficient to stop his hemorrhaging. Upon hearing that, Bashir ordered the nurse to clamp his artery instead.
