PPT-Implementing foam-silicone dressings in the ICU To Reduce

pressure ulcer formation By Kathryn Fox RN Ferris State University Background Preventing pressure ulcer PU formation in the hospital setting is an ongoing clinical problem The Joint Commission 2008 found that more than 60000 patients expire annually related to pressure ulcer complications Decreasing pressure ulcers acquired in the hospital setting is especially important due to the economic climate of healthcare cost reduction . r . urethane partial foot.

Introduction. : Fluid controlling capabilities of advanced wound dressings are of paramount importance when it comes to managing wound exudate. Poor wound exudate handling by a wound dressing can lead to fluid leakage from around the dressing or strike through, both of which can lead to soiled clothing and malodour; exacerbating patient social isolation. . In-Vitro. Roberts S. ., Lovett J., . Stephenson . C.. Introduction: . The handling of fluid by wound dressings is paramount to their overall performance in the treatment of chronic wounds. The inability of a dressing to manage wound exudate can lead to maceration of the wound bed, leakage of fluid from dressings onto surrounding clothing or bedding, or drying out of the wound leading to ineffective moist wound healing. It is important therefore to assess the fluid handling properties of dressings using a method that simulates clinical wound conditions.. . & . THERMOPLASTIC . ELASTOMERS.
