Why Won’t This Wound Heal? Identifying Complicating Factors – webinar

Tuesday, March 29, 2022 Harry Schneider, Assistant Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School

Chronic wounds are difficult to heal, and they are often stuck in the inflammatory phase of wound healing. Stalled healing can be caused by a variety of factors, including infection, patient comorbidities, insufficient wound bed preparation, and other issues.

In managing a chronic wound, advanced therapies may aid in wound closure. These modalities include products that aid in bioburden management, those that provide scaffolding to aid in granulation tissue growth and wound closure, devices that remove excess fluid, and other products and techniques.

Clinicians participating in this webinar will be able to:

  • Recognize the clinical burden of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) on patient quality of life and examine the benefits of cellular therapies in wound care
  • Identify treatment options for chronic DFUs
