Multidisciplinary approach and product innovation in the management of complex wounds
نویسنده
چکیده
Interviews with the patient that were conducted after the wound had healed were used in order to reflect on his hospital journey and gain insights into his treatment experience. This article demonstrates that new wound product innovations such as Suprasorb X+PHMB (polyhexamethylene biguanide) (Activa Healthcare), along with a multidisciplinary approach, can result in positive outcomes in complex hard-to-heal wounds.
