Wound Healing

The third edition of this work reflects the recent rapid changes in technology and knowledge in the area of wound healing. It is an evidence-based comprehensive text on wound care for the health professions. The presentation mimics the way in which a practitioner gains knowledge about a patient's condition, examines the patient, considers confounding information, develops a plan and carries through with the treatment. Explanations emphasize the scientific as well as the clinical aspects of physical agents in wound repair. New chapters in this volume include wound debridement and irrigation and documentation. New modalities chapters include evidence-based findings from clinical trials, clinical protocols for the use of various modalities and the latest interventions.
