Description

Within the Wound Bed Preparation model, not all wounds will heal. The goal may prevent infection and wound deterioration. To optimize care for wounds that will not heal requires a partnership between the patient and the health care team. In this session, a nurse physician team  will review the updated evidence of the 2021 Wound Bed Preparation model and using a case base approach, highlight patient centered concerns and care strategy options for non-healable and maintenance wounds that should concentrate on  control of pain, odor, exudate and optimizing activities of everyday living.


Specialty


Learning Outcome

Apply the updated 2021 wound bed preparation model to optimize care planning for persons with maintenance or non-healable wounds.
