WOUND CARE

Wound care is a centuries old phenomenon.

Basic everyday wound care has, despite recent developments, not changed in a substantial way over the last decades.

The efficacy of moist wound treatment has been proven since 1962. Since then there have been no real innovations which lead to significant changes in everyday wound care.

Therefore wounds can be treated only in a general fashion.

Apart from technology, the single most contributing factor for healing wounds is the giving professional care. Just taking really good care of the patient, by using latest knowledge, products and skills, is up to day the most effective wound treatment; that is why we say:

Some things only happen because someone cares!

The wound care goals are, even today, as follows:

1. To stop or reduce the underlying cause for the wound;

2. Removal of hindering factors in the wound treatment;

3. Creating an optimal moist environment;

4. Increase the quality of life for a patient;

5. To make the wound care treatment as efficient and cheap as possible;

6. Make wound healing a controlled process.

If these goals are met the result is a predictable and controllable wound healing process.
