Finally Retired!

Wow, can't believe it is that long. I remember the days before Aquacel, when we only had alginates and hydrocolloid sheets!

How to distinguish between acute and chronic wound infection Last year Jenny Hurlow & Phil Bowler wrote one of my favourite articles in the Journal of Wound Care on this issue. Deciphering whether a wound has an acute infection or a biofilm is not always that easy. I had the privilege of speaking with a group of GPs & Practice Nurses this week and this topic came up. So my friends, this post and the link below is very much with you in mind. #wounds #generalpractitioner #nursing #infection https://lnkd.in/gxpCqi4A

In their recent publication, Phil Bowler and Jenny Hurlow delve into the complex pathology of wound infection, identify two distinct types of infection that are differentiated by the predominant microbial phenotype (planktonic or biofilm), and discuss how recognition of the types of wound infection is important to enable the most appropriate and effective therapy. Read ‘Acute and chronic wound infections: microbiological, immunological, clinical and therapeutic distinctions’ here: https://bit.ly/3GGOd3z

It is reported that 80% of the #bacterial #infections that we acquire are biofilm-related and biofilm causes persistent and recurrent infections that respond poorly to #antibiotics. Despite the acknowledgement of the implications of biofilms in #chronicinfections, its role in antibiotic resistance has been largely overlooked. Our latest news feed explores the relationship between #AMR and #Biofilm. Find out more - https://lnkd.in/dM5cRWfN
