Introduction to Advantage Surgical & Wound Care

Per guidelines, stage II pressure injuries are NOT associated with necrotic tissue/slough. Here I discuss the rationale how, under some circumstances, stage II pressure ulcers can be associated with slough/necrotic tissue.

Pressure ulcer staging, soft tissue anatomy, pressure ulcer downgrading discussed with reference to basic concepts.

Phases of wound healing, healing by secondary intention, surgical wound healing. Tissue repair after trauma.

A brief introduction, through everyday example, on some of the basic concepts of hyperbaric oxygenation, with straightforward calculation to demonstrate how it leads to hyperoxygenation of plasma.

Using basic anatomy to explain pressure ulcer staging

This video discuss local factors which affect wound healing. Optimization of these factors facilitates wound healing.
