Background. The safety and efficacy of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is well established. technology has evolved to include 2 device categories: traditional NPWT (tNPWT) single-use (sNPWT). Each mode unique properties benefitting multiple aspects care. Objective. To assess the proportion tNPWT-treated wounds that could be amenable sNPWT, thus determining optimal therapy. Materials Methods. A de-identified dataset managed with tNPWT in outpatient clinics United States from 2006...
A total of 154 patients admitted to an infectious diseases unit were included in a year's prospective survey sporadic diarrhoeal disease. Stools from 19 them yielded Clostridium difficile, generally on more than one occasion. Twelve these assessed as having severe or moderately gastrointestinal illness: Cl difficile was the only pathogen isolated 10 them, and two had associated salmonella infection. Seven recent course antibiotics, but five not taken antibiotics. Faeces seven with moderate...

Wounds continue to be of a global concern. Therefore, more focussed, evidence-based approach wound assessment and management is required. The WOUND COMPASS™ Clinical Support App (CSA) designed support the health care professional with at point care. This real-world pilot study aimed determine utility CSA during routine management, in multiple settings. A non-interventional, programme was conducted four sites. Patients received management. programmed replicate site's formulary for Anonymised...
The genetic skin condition, epidermolysis bullosa (EB) causes the to be fragile and blister. As a result, blisters need lanced needs dressed with specialist dressings for protection promote wound healing.a prospective case series product evaluation of Allevyn™ Gentle Border Lite dressing range was conducted, four paediatric patients diagnosed following types EB: recessive dystrophic (generalised severe), dominant dystrophic, simplex severe) junctional (localised). Specialist EB nurses at...
A variety of NPWT products have become commercially available in the last 30 years. Utilizing advanced wound therapies appropriately can improve patient outcomes and decrease health care expenditures. Due to increasing number product options, Hurd colleagues published 10 Consensus Statements a clinical decision tree provide guidance on how when use transition between device types.To demonstrate applicability consensus panel's statements tree, 2 clinicians United States Canada explored...
Pressure injuries remain the most common hospital-acquired condition, according to Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Patients hospitalized with COVID-19 are at especially high risk pressure injuries, including those related medical devices, because of their lower tissue tolerance, prolonged intubation, treatment prone positioning.The pandemic brought an increased incidence injury. A 350-bed hospital in St. Joseph, Missouri, recognized that intervention injury these patients was...
The aim of this case series and service evaluation was to demonstrate the beneficial clinical economic outcomes utilisation a negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) decision tree within routine practice. A total 16 retrospective anonymised complex studies were referred tissue viability nursing (TVN) service. Patients received NPWT as inpatients, per Data reported an aggregated cohort, with further stratification by type. Descriptive statistics utilised. most prevalent type dehisced surgical...
Acute and chronic wounds in the acute hospital setting are commonly managed with soft silicone multilayer foam dressings (SSMFDs). While many SSMFDs indicated for wear time of up to 7 days, they often changed more frequently.
