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, we 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.

Biologic patho-mechanisms related to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their impact on GI and GU systems’ health are emerging from population level studies. Research increasingly demonstrates that a chronically activated stress response, particularly in childhood, shifts allostasis from healthy to maladaptive processes, impacting brain development and immune and endocrine systems’ functionality via epigenetic influences. This session will review the critical connections between childhood adversity, chronic inflammation, and GI/GU chronic disease in adulthood.
Afternoon Symposia Sessions

Brandilynn Freeman, RN, MSN, FNP-C, CWON Billy Lan, MD Katie Smith, RN, BSN, CWOCN Cecilia Zamarripa, MSN, RN, CWON
SUPPORTED BY HOLLISTER INCORPORATED
The post op phenomena of a high-output ileostomy is challenging for both patient and staff and requires the involvement and expertise of the WOC Nurse. In the post-acute setting it takes vigilance and skill to avoid patient dehydration and readmission. In this session, hear from a renown colorectal surgeon who will explain the pathophysiology related to the phenomenon and the step-wise pharmacological interventions from her practice along with rationale. An acute care WOC nurse will outline the care priorities and education strategies employed prior to discharge and an advanced practice WOC Nurse provider will share an outpatient regimen for follow-up, monitoring of laboratory values and rehydration to avoid readmission.
(S02) What’s Technology Got to do with It? (W, PP) 12:00 PM EDT – 1:15 PM EDT
CONTACT HOURS: 1 .25
Speaker:
Joyce Black, PhD, RN
SUPPORTED BY HILLROM
As a society, we have embraced technology in our homes and lives. As professionals, we have embraced technology in our work … well, hold on there …sometimes we have. Technology has been developed to help us find early changes in the skin and soft tissue to identify pressure injuries not yet visible. Technology has also been invented to help us track which patients need to be turned, how high the interface pressure is under them and to signal staff to move high risk patients. And there is more…there are devices that wick away urine and signal the nurse that the patient has voided. Apps also exist to bring us closer to guidelines for our work. So why am I comfortable with cruise control on my car, but not with an app to tell me the patient needs to be turned? This session will introduce you to the developed technologies for pressure injury prevention and perhaps change your view of technology for pressure injury prevention!

Speaker:
Barbara Dale, RN, CHHN, CWOCN
Do your patients come to you with all the appropriate wound, ostomy, or continence supplies? Do you transition them to the next setting with all the appropriate supplies? Does the type of insurance matter? If you are in home health serving Medicare, Medicare advantage, Medicaid or other commercial patients, an outpatient center, wound center, long term care, or acute care and not sure what supplies are covered by insurance or how to get them ordered then this session is for you. Learn what supplies are covered and how to ensure your patients get what they need for the transition of care to the next setting in the most time efficient and cost effective manner possible. This will not be a product session but a session for you to learn how to access the coverage listings and how to establish what your patient specifically needs and the most expedient way to obtain those products for your patient.
(207)Diabetic Foot Ulcer Updates: Amputation Prevention through Appropriate Interdisciplinary Care
and Treatment (W, F) PT CME
1:30 PM EDT – 2:30 PM EDT
CONTACT HOURS: 1 AMA PRA CATEGORY 1 CREDITS™: 1 PHYSICAL THERAPY CONTACT HOURS: 1
Speaker:
David Armstrong, DPM, MD, PhD
Foot wounds are now the most common diabetes-related cause of hospitalization and are a frequent precursor to amputation. Persons with diabetes have a 30-fold higher life-time risk of undergoing a lower extremity amputation compared to those without diabetes. An infected foot wound precedes about two-thirds of lower extremity amputations and infection is surpassed only by gangrene as an indication for diabetic lower extremity amputation. Persons with diabetes have at least a 10 fold greater risk of being hospitalized for soft tissue and bone infections of the foot than persons without diabetes.
With these data as a backdrop, we will review the current state of play regarding treatment of the diabetic foot and wounds in the developed and developing world. We will explore policy factors associated with the team approach to amputation prevention as well as tips for the structure of successful teams, both at SALSA and worldwide. The concept of the “Toe and Flow” philosophy of prevention will be explored. Subsequently, emphasis will be placed on specific successes and failures and perhaps a way forward toward prevention. We also explore the use of novel new technology merging consumer electronics with medical devices in an effort to prevent problems before they start.

PRESENTED BY 11HEALTH & TECHNOLOGIES INC.
11 Health is a patient led, patient focused healthcare company with a single-minded objective to help change ostomy care. The company was started by a long term ostomate, Michael Seres, who had struggled with severe crohn’s disease most of his life resulting in him needed a bowel transplant and requiring an ostomy.
Michael’s experience convinced that a combination of technology and patient to patient support could transform the patient experience by working in partnership with doctors and in particular, WOC Nurses.
The 11 Health proposition is to support the patient remotely using a combination of hi tech and hi touch to extend the hand of care received in-hospital delivered by WOC Nurses. Data is delivered in real time giving the patient and their clinical team actionable insights that make a meaningful difference to patients in terms of reduced ER visits and total re-admissions.

(IH03) Healthcare is Changing. Has Your NPWT Evolved? 5:30 PM EDT – 6:00 PM EDT
CONTACT HOURS: 0
Speakers:
Charles Lee, MD, FACS Patrick Schwab, BS, MBA
PRESENTED BY MEDELA
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has become a cornerstone treatment for complex and hard to heal wounds and its distinct mechanisms of action (MOAs) extensively researched. However, there has been little investigation into the fundamental requirements necessary in an NPWT system to effectively deliver these mechanisms and maximize the therapy’s clinical benefits, as not all devices are the same. In this presentation we will:
• Review the NPWT mechanisms of action • Discuss the fundamental requirements of an NPWT system and their role in promoting effective delivery of NPWT • Discuss the results of a recent publication comparing the ability of System A (Invia® Liberty™ NPWT System, Medela
AG) and System B (V.A.C.ULTA™ Therapy System, 3M+KCI) to deliver set levels of NPWT to the wound bed and simultaneously manage volumes of simulated wound fluid • Review case study data demonstrating improved patient outcomes using both the Invia® Liberty™ and Invia Motion®
NPWT Systems
