A unique, compact, comprehensive and realistic model displaying Five Stage Pressure Ulcers(*):
(NPUAP 2007 - National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel). Pressure Ulcer Staging Model 5 Stages: - an unstageable eschar/slough wound, Stage I (in both darkly and lightly pigmented skin),
- Stage II,
- Stage III with undermining, tunneling and slough,
- a shallow Stage IV over the malleolus with exposed bone and tendon,
- and a Stage IV with exposed bone, tendon, muscle and undermining, tunneling, eschar and slough.
The
darkly pigmented skin section shows how different a Stage I, blood
blister and suspected DTI (Deep Tissue Injury) may appear depending on
the pigmentation.
The DTIs, when felt, have a "spongy/soft"
feel, especially helpful in darkly pigmented patients where
visualization of the injury may not be apparent. In the past, healthcare
providers have been taught wound care through high-quality photographs
and video. 'Pat' Pressure Ulcer Staging Model? brings wound care alive
in a way that even the best of photographs cannot do.
This
Pressure Ulcer Staging Model makes it possible to visualize and
understand the differences in wounds. Great care has been taken to color
each wound just as you would see it on a patient. Once the different
etiologies are understood, you can discuss and devise treatment plans
that will deliver optimized patient care.
Pressure ulcer
assessment has become critical to the operation of health agencies, as
inaccurate wound assessment can affect reimbursement, cause inaccurate
reporting of patient outcomes and the appearance of potential adverse
events. 'Pat' Pressure Ulcer Staging Model is an effective tool to
educate all healthcare providers, patients, families and caregivers in
the identification and staging of pressure ulcers.
This Pressure
Ulcer Staging model is also an excellent visual aid for educating those
who cannot read well enough to understand basic health care
information, allowing them to see what can occur without proper care.
Routine cleansing and dressing changes can be taught and practiced on
all the wounds.
This product is made of a unique new material
that permits the application and easy removal of dressings without the
need to constantly cleanse the skin of residual adhesive.
A great tool for training, competency testing, skills assessment and dressing techniques!
