RESUMO

The issues with silver resistance and the effectiveness of using DACC-coated dressings in wound treatment were discussed at an Essity-sponsored symposium. Camila Fronzo noted the key points presented by three speakers at the EWMA and Journées Cicatrisations conference 2021 This conference report presents an overview of the symposium 'Being smart about wound infection: evaluating and treating wounds in the era of antimicrobial stewardship', held in October 2021 as part of the joint European Wound Management Association (EWMA) and Journées Cicatrisations virtual conference. The first speaker, Hadar Lev-Tov, talked about the rising problem of silver resistance in wound care, and presented published data that show a general bacterial resistance against silver dressings. The next speaker, Cornelia Wiegand, explained the antimicrobial activity in Cutimed Sorbact dressings (Essity) against five top World Health Organization (WHO)-relevant pathogens, for which new antibiotics are urgently needed. The third and final speaker, Ewa Klara Stürmer, presented six case studies showing the use of Cutimed Sorbact to control bacteria and biofilm on hard-to-heal (a term which has replaced 'chronic') leg ulcers. These demonstrated the effectiveness of Sorbact when managing such wounds.

RESUMO

In an Essity-sponsored symposium, three key opinion leaders discussed the importance of developing, sharing and applying best practice in skin tear management. Camila Fronzo summarises the key points presented at the EWMA and Journées Cicatrisations conference 2021 This conference report offers an introduction to the symposium 'Skin integrity: introducing best practice in skin tears', held in October as part of the joint European Wound Management Association (EWMA) and Journées Cicatrisations virtual conference 2021. The first speaker, Karen Campbell, listed the individual and mediating factors that could affect skin tear development. She then summarised the three types of skin tears, and mentioned the dos and don'ts when treating these wounds. The next speaker, Wendy White, highlighted the importance of creating awareness, changing perceptions and implementing change around skin tear management. She shared the results on staff education from a recent quality improvement project, aimed at improving skin integrity and reducing skin tears in an aged care facility in Western Australia. The third and final speaker, Sitthichai Rees, presented further findings from the same project, focusing on the effects on skin tear incidence. His call to action can be followed by any health professional managing skin tears.

RESUMO

RESUMEN: El 13 de julio de 2022, el Journal of Wound Care LATAM (JWC LATAM) presentó su primer Masterclass. Esta clase magistral fue transmitida en vivo, en formato de webinar. Contó con la participación de tres ponentes que abarcaron definición, causas, factores de riesgo y clasificación de MARSI. Describieron, también, cómo determinar quiénes están en riesgo de desarrollar MARSI, qué cuidados tener en cuenta para reducir el riesgo de este tipo de heridas, cuán desarrollado está el concepto de MARSI en América latina, y qué dice la literatura acerca de las mejores prácticas. El siguiente reporte resume los puntos más relevantes. CONFLICTO DE INTERÉS: Ninguno.

RESUMO

La región de América Latina y el Caribe tiene el mayor índice de partos por cesárea del mundo. El dato no es novedoso, pero los riesgos de infección relacionados con esta operación siguen generando preocupación. Sobre todo, en tiempos donde la resistencia a los antibióticos es considerada una de las mayores amenazas para la salud mundial. En Reino Unido, una conferencia sobre prevención de infecciones postparto resaltó esta problemática, presentó las últimas técnicas para el manejo y prevención de infecciones quirúrgicas después de una cesárea, y recomendó diferentes apósitos a la hora de elegir un tratamiento que no favorezca la resistencia a los antibióticos. La necesidad de enfrentar los desafíos que presentan las infecciones postparto, sumada a la importancia de contar con profesionales de la salud entrenados en el cuidado de las heridas y la selección de apósitos, fueron los mensajes claves.The Latin America and Caribbean region has the highest rates of caesarean deliveries in the world. The data is not new, but the risks of surgical site infection (SSI) associated with this practice continue to generate concern­especially, in times where antibiotic resistance is considered one of the greatest threats to global health. In the UK, a conference on prevention of postpartum infection highlighted this issue, presenting the latest techniques in the management of SSI and introducing different types of dressings when choosing a treatment that does not favour resistance to antibiotics. The need to take action and face the challenges around postpartum infection, coupled with the importance of having health professionals trained in wound care and dressing selection, were among the key takeaway messages.
