Chronic/Diabetic Wound Management
About this Treatment
A comprehensive management plan designed for slow-healing or chronic wounds (specifically diabetic foot ulcers and pressure sores). This treatment focuses on debridement, moisture regulation, and bacterial load reduction to move the wound from a stagnant "chronic" phase back into an "active" healing phase.
Treatment Process
Assessment & Cleaning: Irrigate the wound with a sterile saline solution or a prescribed antimicrobial cleanser. Gently pat the surrounding skin (periwound) dry.
Debridement (If applicable): Remove necrotic (dead) tissue or slough as directed by a specialist to expose healthy, granulating tissue.
Application of Primary Dressing: Apply a specialized interface based on wound exudate (e.g., Hydrocolloids for dry wounds or Alginates/Foams for heavy drainage).
Infection Control: Apply prescribed topical antimicrobial agents (such as silver-impregnated dressings) if signs of biofilm or localized infection are present.
Secondary Dressing & Securement: Cover with a breathable, protective secondary layer and secure with non-adhesive wrap to protect fragile skin.
Off-loading: Ensure the patient utilizes specialized footwear, pillows, or repositioning to remove all physical pressure from the wound site.
