SUPPORTED BY SMITH+NEPHEW There now exists an array of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy options. Until recently, no established recommendations or guidance existed regarding the type of NPWT system to use. Join this session to learn from Dr. Theresa Hurd and Dr. Rafael Diaz-Garcia, two expert clinicians who contributed to the 2021 publication, International Consensus Panel Recommendations for the Optimization of Traditional and Single-Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in the Treatment of Acute and Chronic Wounds.
There is a plethora of compression bandage systems, compression devices and garments available. Optimizing the selection of a specific compression textile, followed by successful utilization is the more challenging task that clinicians face daily, particularly with more complex presentations. Attendees will learn about compression textiles available, tips for matching patient presentation to a specific compression type, and practical application suggestions will be demonstrated for specific compression garments.
Does it sound complicated or overwhelming to implement clinical and operational changes within your institution? This session will allow you to learn first-hand from clinicians that have enacted change and experienced positive results.
