Pressure ulcers are a significant medical problem due to their frequency and high treatment cost. An important task is to prevent their formation, but very often, despite great efforts, if a large number of risk factors are present, pressure sores appear and develop. Therefore, the treatment of pressure sores is interdisciplinary and multi-specialised. The treatment process involves nurses and doctors as well as many different specialists, e.g. dieticians or physiotherapists. Many new treatment methods have been developed in recent years. The aim of this article is to characterize the latest methods of treating bedsores as presented in various scientific studies from recent years. Material and methods: The work was based on medical articles collected in PubMed, Google Scholar, Via Medica Journals, websites and medical books. The research was conducted through the analysis of keywords such as: "pressure ulcers", "wound care", "wound management", "pressure ulcers treatment". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
