Complications such as pressure ulcers, nonhealing surgical wounds, and moisture-associated skin damage have become more common as medical and surgical care for pediatric patients has become more complicated. The choice of specific dressings or other wound care products for neonatal and paediatric patients is currently based on a combination of provider experience and preference, as well as a small number of published clinical guidelines based on expert opinion; rigorous evidence-based clinical guidelines for wound management in these populations are lacking. Based on the special concerns about wound management in paediatric patients, this session will address evidence-based wound care methods and demonstration of the safety, efficacy, and proper utilisation of existing wound care dressings and products in neonatal and paediatric populations.
