Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
How can a better understanding of wound biofilms change your clinical practice? And what is the likely impact on clinical outcomes? At this year's JWC lecture, sponsored by sorbion, two of the world's leading microbiologists, Steve Percival and Randy Wolcott, answered these questions. Steve Percival explained what a wound biofilm is, and what diagnostic and management techniques can be used to overcome it. Randy Wolcott described the astonishing success this can bring, with healing rates of up 90% being recorded in patients with recalcitrant chronic wounds. |
