This course will address the differences between the NPWT technologies and employ an algorithmic approach to determine which technology to use and when.
Christopher Barrett, DPM, CWS, MAPWCA and Ralph Napolitano, DPM, CWSP, FACFAS discusss the clinical burden of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) on patient quality of life and economics. They examine the clinical efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of various advanced therapies for DFU management (dressings, negative pressure wound therapy, hybrid drapes) and how to develop an effective strategy for managing complex DFUs and preventing infections.
Non-accredited presentation featuring Ronald P. Silverman, MD, FACS, Vickie Driver, DPM, MS, FACFAS, FAAWC and Alisha Oropallo, MD, FACS, FSVS, FAPWCA, FABWMS discussing recommendations about the initial wound assessment process that prompts a referral to a wound care center, the perspectives about challenging issues commonly seen in patients with complex wounds and common pitfalls in limb salvage. They will also provide their insights on recent innovations that have made a difference in clinical practice and the latest in wound management in this patient population,
This course provides best practice techniques for optimizing the use of NPWT, compression and advanced wound care therapies for complex wounds across the spectrum of healthcare delivery.
Robert Klein, DPM and Cathy Milne, MSN, APRN, CWOCN-AP evaluate the science, evidence and wound healing efficacy of oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC)/collagen, negative pressure wound therapy and hybrid drapes, review wound types that would benefit from the use of a new indication utilizing a collagen matrix with oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) and Silver under Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) paired with a silicone drape and explore, via illustrative case studies, clinical outcomes from the combines use of NPWT, ORC Collagen, hybrid drapes and advanced wound care technol
