An Individualized Wound Treatment Program
Each patient undergoes a thorough diagnostic examination to identify the type of wound he or she has and the underlying problems causing the wound to resist healing. After this, a program specifically tailored to his or her needs will be formed based on the most effective treatment options available. Treatments may include:
- Debridement (surgical removal of dead tissue around the wound)
- Diabetic education
- Infectious Disease management
- Laboratory evaluation
- Nuclear medicine
- Nutritional management
- Pain management
- Physical Therapy
- Radiology
- Vascular evaluation
- Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
