Ultrasound has been used for the treatment of a variety of cutaneous wounds, particularly venous ulcers. Many of the published studies involved application of ultrasound to the surrounding tissue rather than directly over the wound. Insonating the wound itself may enhance the healing process, but the lack of data regarding the transmission characteristics of dressings has limited the use of thi...
CONTEXT Use of a chlorhexidine gluconate-impregnated sponge (CHGIS) in intravascular catheter dressings may reduce catheter-related infections (CRIs). Changing catheter dressings every 3 days may be more frequent than necessary. OBJECTIVE To assess superiority of CHGIS dressings regarding the rate of major CRIs (clinical sepsis with or without bloodstream infection) and noninferiority (less t...
BACKGROUND Despite the implementation of prevention strategies, pressure ulcers (PUs) continue to be a challenging health problem for patients (and their carers), clinicians and health-care providers. One area of growing interest is the use of prophylactic dressings (which were originally designed for the treatment of PUs and other wound types) as a component of standard prevention measures. Ov...
comparison of partial- and full-mouth examination in periodontal assessment among untreated patients
objective: whole-mouth examination is generally considered as a gold standard for exact periodontal disease assessment. partial mouth examination also has sometimes been used for this purpose, but its efficacy has been questioned. with regard to symmetric destruction hypothesis of periodontal disease, the present study investigated the efficacy of partial- mouth examination as an alternative fo...
Medical tapes and dressings are commonly used in hospitals to cover wounds and secure dressings or devices on patients’ skin. Repeated application and removal of medical adhesives may result in trauma to skin causing severe patient discomfort as well as expensive interventions. In this paper I will describe a new silicone-based medical adhesive that was designed to be gentle to sensitive skin w...
The World Health Organization document (WHO, 2010), Wound and Lymphoedema Management, stresses the need to integrate lymphoedema, chronic oedema and wound care (Bolton, 2010). Due to skin changes that occur in patients with chronic oedema, there is the potential for venous ulceration to occur (Hampton, 2010). Thus, dressings are required to manage infection and exudate. Conditions such as lymph...
OBJECTIVE Healthcare systems are being challenged to manage increasing numbers of nonhealing wounds. Wound dressings are one of the first lines of defense in wound management, and numerous options exist. The oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC)/collagen dressing may offer healthcare providers a robust and cost-effective tool for use in a variety of wounds. DESIGN A multidisciplinary panel mee...
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy of a sequential strategy combining calcium alginate and hydrocolloid dressings treatment of grade III or IV pressure ulcers (PUs) and the efficacy of nonsequential strategy with hydrocolloids alone. DESIGN An open, randomized, multicenter parallel-group trial. SETTING Twenty geriatrics hospital wards. PARTICIPANTS One hundred ten older patients with grad...
Bacteria organized in biofilms are insensitive to the usual treatment with dressings or antibiotics. Most successful is surgical debridement to remove their colonies, but this option may not be possible in all environments. Dressings with silver and other antiseptics are often the only tools available to nurses at patient homes or to dermatologists at outpatient clinics. In our clinical studies...
