Clinical experience with incisional negative pressure.
Implementation of new wound management technologies in the clinic
Healthcare professionals are faced with an unenviable task in the current economic climate. Clinicians must provide patients with evidence based treatments even when evidence is sparse. They must understand where new technologies might fit into their current clinical pathways and audit their practice to aid others. Experience allows clinicians to target those patients that are high risk of developing complications such as dehisced and infected wounds. These complications are costly both in terms of the healthcare community and patient outcomes. Clinical care pathways in these patients may be altered by preventative actions improving the clinical outcomes.
