          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción: Las úlceras venosas tienen una alta prevalencia, por lo que aumentan los costes sanitarios y empeoran la calidad de vida del paciente. La terapia de presión negativa y los injertos en sello se utilizan en la cura de heridas complejas. Objetivos: Mostrar la eficacia de la terapia de presión negativa y la de los injertos en sello en una úlcera venosa tratada desde atención primaria en el domicilio del paciente. Metodología: Valoración de la lesión, realización de un plan de cuidados personalizado y evolución durante 1 año hasta la cicatrización completa. Resultados: Este trabajo muestras efectos beneficiosos de la terapia de presión negativa, se redujo el exudado, se acortó el tiempo de cicatrización, se controló y eliminó el dolor y, por ende, la calidad de vida del paciente, como también lo hizo en la fase final la aplicación de injertos en sello. Conclusiones: Se muestra la necesidad de abordar un caso clínico desde una perspectiva holística y multidisciplinar fomentando la enfermería basada en la evidencia y empoderando al paciente.

          Abstract Introduction: Venous ulcers are highly prevalent, increasing healthcare costs and worsening the patient’s quality of life. Negative pressure therapy (NPT) and seal grafts are used in the healing of complex wounds. Objectives: To show the efficacy of TPN and seal grafts in a venous ulcer treated by primary care at the patient’s home. Methodology: Assessment of the lesion, development of a personalized care plan and evolution during one year until complete healing. Results: This work shows beneficial effects of TPN, reducing exudate, shortening healing time, controlling and eliminating pain and therefore, the patient’s quality of life as well as in the final phase, the application of grafts in seal. Conclusions: It shows the need to approach a clinical case from a holistic and multidisciplinary perspective promoting evidence-based nursing and empowering the patient.

            Treating the chronic wound: A practical approach to the care of nonhealing wounds and wound care dressings.

            Chronic wounds are a major healthcare problem costing the United States billions of dollars a year. The American Academy of Dermatology has underscored the significance of wound care in dermatological practice. It is critical for all dermatologists to understand the elements of diagnosis and therapy. We emphasize major aspects of diagnosis and present a simple classification of wound dressings with guidelines for usage and relative cost data. After completing this learning activity, participants should be able to diagnose common types of chronic wounds, formulate a therapeutic plan, and describe the major classes of topical therapies and dressings for the chronic wound.

              Prevalence of lower-limb ulceration: a systematic review of prevalence studies.

              To determine the prevalence of leg ulcers reported in the literature. A systematic review of prevalence studies of lower-limb ulceration in the adult population was conducted. Critical appraisal of the research papers was guided by published standards for methodologic review of prevalence studies, which were modified to address the issues related to leg ulcers. Twenty-two reports of prevalence studies were identified. Eight population-based prevalence studies used clinical validation and reported prevalence rates of open ulcers ranging from 0.12% to 1.1% of the population; the prevalence rate of open or healed ulcers was reported to be 1.8%. Seven population-based studies without clinical validation reported prevalence rates of open ulcers ranging from 0.12% to 0.32% of the population. Differences in the populations studied, study design, ulcer definition, ulcer etiology, inclusion of foot ulcers, method of clinical assessment, and clinical validation of ulcer cases indicate that it is inappropriate to pool the estimates of prevalence. In most studies that considered age and sex, the prevalence of ulcers increased with age and was higher for women. Better-quality prevalence studies are needed. These studies should clearly define the populations being studied, include large numbers of individuals and total populations, provide a clear definition of an ulcer, describe case identification procedures, and clinically confirm the presence of ulcers.
