 Approximately 5 million Americans live with chronic non-healing wounds. 70 to 80 percent of those suffer venous stasis ulcers while the remaining 20 to 30 percent suffer from diabetic and arterial ulcers. At least 50 percent of all diabetic ulcer amputations are preventable with early interventions. Successful wound healing is dependent on the utilization of a team approach with a focus on proper dressings, debridement, nutrition, infection control, off-loading and adjunctive therapies when indicated. Proper wound care has proven to expedite wound healing, reduce pain and reduce financial cost to the patient and healthcare industry.
