  1. CONNECTIVE ISSUES 2014Pressure Injury Case Study

  2. Outline • Medical History • Social History • Patient Assessment • Lower Limb Assessment • Factor affecting healing and goals setting • Progress of the wound and reviewing goals • What I learnt from this case

  3. Medical History • Mario*: 65 year old man • Coronary artery disease • Bisoprolol, Frusid, Astrix • Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (August 2010) • Depression • Endep • Hypertension, Hyperlidaemia • Coversyl, Liptor • Type 2 Diabetes (10 year duration) • HbA1C 8.1% • Diabex • Other

  4. Psychosocial environment • Low mood • Home supports • Retired, lives with supportive wife • Access to services • Metro area, close to hospital • Community Bus

  5. Patient Assessment • Mobility • Nutrition • Pain • 4/10 VAS in wound, intermittent, background • Severe right calf pain when walking +30 seconds

  6. Wound History • 3 week duration • During hospital stay post CABG surgery • “Clear gel” dressing in situ

  7. Lower limb assessment:Peripheral Arterial • Intermittent claudication at 10 metres • Edinburgh Claudication Questionnaire (Leng, 1992) • Pedal pulses • Right – Absent Left – Normal • Audible doppler • Right – Monophasic with faint volume • Ankle Brachial Index • Right – 0.59 Left – 0.94 • Toe pressure • Right – 20mmHg Left – 100mmHg • Conclusion: Severe peripheral arterial disease (International Diabetes Federation (IDF), 2011; Marston et al. 2005; Norgren et al., 2007)

  8. Lower limb assessment • Peripheral neurological • 10g monofilament present • Footwear • Lace up runners

  9. Factors affecting healing and goal setting

  10. Heel pressure Image from: OAPL (2011)

  11. Peripheral Arterial Disease

  12. Hyperglycaemia

  13. Other Factors to Consider • Nutrition (Brown & Phillips, 2010) • Wound pain(Cole-King & Harding, 2001; Solowiej, Mason, & Upton, 2009, WHO 1990) • Psychosocial impact (Finestone, Alfeeli, & Fisher, 2008; Vileikyte, Rubin, & Leventhal, 2004) • Monitor contral-lateral side, risk of other pressure injurys(IDF, 2011; NPUAP, 2009) • Management of other co-morbidities (Nogren, et al. 2007) • Infection? (Lipsky, 2004)
