Chronic Wound Management: The Significance of Evidence and Technology (PDF Book)
Comprehensive Guide to Chronic Wound Management
By Raj Mani
Chronic wounds have a distinct healing trajectory compared to acute wounds. This book explores the factors related to poor healing outcomes, including age, chronic inflammation, and diabetes. It also highlights the impact of wound-pain, hypoxemia, undiagnosed biofilms, and poor patient compliance. Despite significant advances in wound care, diabetic foot wounds pose a challenge to healthcare professionals, and recurrence rates remain high. This book explores the benefits of technology in wound diagnosis and examines the gaps between evidence-based guidelines and wound-management technology.
The book provides an insightful review of the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and examines the role of traditional medicine systems in chronic wound management. It is an essential read for healthcare professionals working with these patients.
