A new White Paper (July 2014, Woundsource.com) authored by Dr Mark Nixon, Chief Medical Officer, ARANZ Medical, discusses the importance of using accurate and precise wound measurement and healing trend data to support early and effective clinical management for patients. Based on a sound understanding of wound management trends in the US and other health economies, the author examines the limitations of current wound assessment methods and points the way to a new era of practice when systematic and quantitative tracking of wound healing progress is used routinely to support effective clinical decision-making.A digital imaging and 3-dimensional wound measurement method (Silhouette, ARANZ Medical) is described to illustrate how such novel technologies will play an increasingly important part in enabling clinicians to achieve higher standards of wound surveillance to support effective clinical management of patients.
