Wound Management Product Formulary

Tissue Viability Service Wound Management Product Formulary Version: CLCH 204 OUR VISION: To lead out-of-hospital community healthcare 0/02/204

INTRODUCTION TO THE FORMULARY: The aim of this formulary is to guide the clinician in their choice of dressings so that an optimum wound healing environment can be achieved. This formulary is to be used in conjunction with CLCH Wound Care Guidelines/policies and holistic assessment. All policies relating to Tissue Viability can be found on the HUB. Practitioners should use their own professional judgement in individual patient circumstances. The clinician should read all product literature and manufacturers guidelines prior to use. Dressings may be prescribed as single items and not just by pack/box. The Tissue Viability Team are available to discuss dressing selection on: 020 82 2329/2340 (Barnet Team) or 020 892 447 (Inner Boroughs Team). 2 Tissue Viability Service

DRESSING GUIDANCE CHART FOR PRESSURE ULCERS When treating patients with pressure ulcers consider pressure reducing/relieving equipment and repositioning regimes in addition to dressing choices. Refer to the CLCH Pressure Ulcer Policy or contact the TVN for additional guidance on the management of pressure ulcers. CATEGORY/GRADE Intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area usually over a bony prominence. Darkly pigmented skin may not have visible blanching; its colour may differ from the surrounding area. The area may be painful, firm, soft, warmer or cooler compared to adjacent tissue. Category I may be difficult to detect in individuals with dark skin tones. May indicate at risk persons. CATEGORY/GRADE 2 Partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow open ulcer with a red pink wound bed, without slough. May also present as an intact or open/ruptured serum-filled or sero-sanginous filled blister. Presents as a shiny or dry shallow ulcer without slough or bruising*. This category should not be used to describe skin tears, tape burns, incontinence associateddermatitis, maceration or excoriation. *Bruising indicates deep tissue injury. Ensure a pressure relieving/reducing mattress, cushion or heal protectors are in place. KerraPro pressure reducing pads for pressure relief. Implement a repositioning regime Use of skin barriers such as Cutimed PROTECT Barrier Film or Cream. Use Proshield Plus to protect intact and damaged skin associated with incontinence Allevyn Gentle Border or Aquacel Foam Adhesive or Granuflex or Duoderm Extra Thin** CATEGORY/GRADE 3 Full thickness tissue loss. Subcutaneous fat may be visible but bone, tendon or muscle is not exposed. Slough may be present but does not obscure the depth of tissue loss. May include undermining and tunneling. The depth of a Category/Grade III pressure ulcer varies by anatomical location. The bridge of the nose, ear, occiput and malleolus NB: do not have (adipose) subcutaneous tissue and Category/Grade 3 ulcers can be shallow. In contrast, areas of significant adiposity can develop extremely deep Category/Grade 3 pressure ulcers. Bone/tendon is not visible or directly palpable. CATEGORY/GRADE 4 Full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon or muscle. Slough or eschar may be present. Often includes undermining and tunneling. The depth of a Category/Grade 4 pressure ulcer varies by anatomical location. The bridge of the nose, ear, occiput and malleolus do not have (adipose) subcutaneous tissue and these ulcers can be shallow. Category/Grade 4 ulcers can extend into muscle and/or supporting structures (e.g., fascia, tendon or joint capsule) making osteomyelitis or osteitis likely to occur. Exposed bone/muscle is visible or directly palpable. Dry Necrosis Keep Dry and Consult TVN Wet Necrosis. Apply absorbent dressings such as Aquacel with Allevyn Gentle Border and consult TVN Slough or Granulation Aquacel (consider ribbon if cavity present) or Algivon Plus Top with a secondary dressing of Allevyn Gentle Border or Topical Negative Wound Therapy* Infected Aquacel Ag (consider ribbon if cavity present) or Iodoflex with a secondary dressing of Allevyn Gentle Border 30 Tissue Viability Service
