Non-Healing Wounds: A Chronic Dilemma
The Challenge for Physicians
The modern healthcare environment poses many challenges for the physician who is attempting to heal a chronic wound. The etiology of wounds are as varied as the patients that present them. Below is a sample of the wounds commonly seen in the Wound Healing Center.
- Acute traumatic ischemia
- Compromised skin grafts
- Necrotizing tissue infections
- Neuropathic Ulcers
- Severe Pressure Ulcers
- Soft tissue Radiation injury
- Refractory Osteomyelitis
- Ischemic Ulcers
- Venous Ulcers
- Diabetic Ulcers
- Collagen Vascular Ulcers
(These ulcers typically result in delayed healing which can lead to increased frustration to the patient as well as the physician.)
