Non-healing wounds have become a major worldwide healthcare burden. The impact of biofilms on chronic wound infection is well established but despite increased understanding of the underlying mechanism of biofilm formation in chronic wounds, we still have a lot to learn about biofilm diagnosis in chronic wounds.
After the webinar you will:
- Know more about the mechanism of biofilm formation
- Understand the importance of cleansing and debridement as a first critical step
- Have a clear understanding of the “Step-Down – Then Step-Up Treatment” strategy
- Learn from case studies
