Assess current techniques, in the in-patient and out-patient settings, to determine levels of contamination and identify which method to use and when
Outline new and emerging technologies to determine levels of contamination and infection in the wound
Determine the relationship between slough removal and infection control
Explain the role of silver, Iodine, acetic acid and systemic antibiotic in the management of infection
Examine new and emerging technologies for slough removal including a novel hypochlorous acid, charged fiber
Explore illustrative case-studies on wound infection management and apply current strategies
