Omschrijving

The growing number of complex chronic wounds afflicting our aging, sicker, and fatter population has brought about the emergence of the so-called 'wound care industry', which, in turn, has become a lucrative business, conducted in thousands of 'wound care clinics' mushrooming all around us. A wide range of specialties and qualifications have jumped on the bandwagon to become wound care experts, offering different 'styles' of wound care. The dressing, drug, and device industry has joined right in and has flooded the market with immensely costly products, many of which are based on flimsy or fabricated evidence.

Undoubtedly, 'modern' wound care worldwide is chaotic -- compared with most other disciplines and specialties, it could be described as the 'Wild Wild West' of patient care.

This short monograph attempts to insert common sense into the chaos, emphasizing established truth and pointing out gimmicks, all based on the author's personal experience. As in the previous books in the series Schein's Common Sense (now in multiple editions and translations), the narrative is 'no-nonsense' and not always politically correct.

The book is aimed at physicians of all specialties, allied providers, and nurses -- anyone who wishes to engage in wound care or is already involved but needs some guidance.
