Popis: | The cost of wound care frequently is defined as the cost of materials and labor, ignoring the effect of both variables on outcome. As a result, money-saving measures actually may increase cost while reducing the quality of care. Definitions and tools to enable professionals to understand, evaluate, and compare the cost-effectiveness of wound care practices and treatment modalities are given. |
