Description:
A high percentage of residents in long-term care facilities suffer from debilitating and complex medical conditions. A comprehensive skin wound and care treatment plan must address specific factors: including pressure, friction, shear, nutrition and topical treatment. This clinical case report demonstrates the positive outcomes achieved by using support surface "continuity of care" for an elderly resident with multiple areas of skin breakdown, including a Stage IV pressure ulcer. The SenTech Medical Systems, Inc. Stage IV™ and AIR CHAIR™ systems provided optimal therapy for this resident while in the chair or the bed. Wound healing outcomes, as demonstrated by a 75% increase in viable tissue, prove that this approach assures quality patient care.
