Applied Wound Management and Using the Wound Healing Continuum in Practice
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Applied Wound Management (AWM) framework utilises three different continuums, each relating to a key wound parameter: 8 Wound Healing Continuum (WHC): is represented by the tissues in the wound and is a colour-based continuum. 8 Wound Infection Continuum (WIC): is subdivided into named stages representing varying host responses to bioburden, each identified by clinical cues. 8 Wound Exudate Continuum (WEC): is represented by volume and consistency parameters, and each can be graded according to a ‘matrix’ continuum.
